Steve O'Dwyer is sat atop of the chip counts and the in-form man has just added even more chips to his stack after a clash with Tyler Reiman.
We joined the action on a board that was wetter than an otter's pocket, it read 
and O'Dwyer had checked fin middle position. Reiman paused for the count of 20 before betting 2,250 and O'Dwyer sat staring at him for a short while before making the call. The river was the 
and O'Dwyer checked again. Reiman then bet 3,100 under the watchful eye of O'Dywer who then asked Reiman to move his hands so he could see how many chips he had behind.
He had 13,250 behind and O'Dwyer wanted the lot. He bet 11,000 and Reiman looked deflated to say the least. He sat with his head on his left hand replaying the hand over in his head and he was either bluffing or came to the conclusion he was beaten, but whatever he thought it resulted in him mucking his hand.
O'Dwyer continues to climb.

First the player in the next seat, Raoul Refos, called then after one player had folded Guido Kempkes called. Bahadir Kilickeser, in the small blind also called but Eugene Katchalov spoiled the party by raised to just 2,200 and we fully expected him to be called in at least one or two spots but each of the players folded in turn leaving the Team PokerStars Pro to pick up the pot.
