O'Dea Spikes

Level 22 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante

Erik Seidel opened for a raise in the cutoff, Eoghan O'Dea moved all in for 518,000 on the button and both blinds released. Seidel made a quick call, showing {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}, and O'Dea tabled {a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}.

The Irishman was well behind but flopped backdoor straight and flush draws when the dealer fanned {5-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}. The {2-Hearts} on the turn kept his backdoor wheel draw alive, giving him seven outs to survive, and the {a-Spades} on the river was one of them.

O'Dea doubled to over a million chips, while Seidel fell to a similar stack size.
