High Rollers Are Not For the Faint of Heart

Level 15 : 12,000/24,000, 3,000 ante

Steve O'Dwyer just doubled up on the bubble, and he theatrically reached for his heart after winning a massive coin flip.

O'Dwyer moved all in from the cutoff for 437,000 chips and Bryn Kenney moved all in over the top right away from the small blind.

O'Dwyer: {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Kenney: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}

The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} and O'Dwyer raked in a massive double up, as we're still one away from the money.

"How was that runout," Scott Seiver asked," Was it fast enough?"

O'Dwyer, seemingly dazed, said, "I guess it was alright."

Seiver started laughing and said, "He's not even on this planet right now," after going through the big rush of this big hand.

"I think Steve almost had a heart attack," Seiver continued, "He might need a doctor."

"This Steve seems a lot more calm right now," Isaac Haxton joked about the O'Dwyer figurine he has sitting next to his chips.

"Yeah," Nick Petrangelo chimed in, "At least that Steve's acting as if he's been here before," and the entire table burst out in laughter.

O'Dwyer's now in a great chip position while Kenney was knocked way down, as hand for hand play continues.
