O'Neill Scores Massive Double up Against Eljach
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Padraig O'Neill had already opened on the button and Omar Eljach had a three-bet of 120,000 in front of him, which O'Neill called.
Eljach continued for 40,000 on the 4♠A♥8♣ flop and O'Neill called.
The 10♥ came on the turn and Eljach check-called a 100,000 bet from O'Neill.
Eljach checked a final time after the 9♦ completed the board and O'Neill announced he was all in for 332,000 total — sending Eljach deep into the tank.
Eljach burned up a few of his time extensions, but eventually decided to call. O'Neill tabled 8♦8♠ for a set of eights, which was best against Eljach's Ax2x for the large double up.
