O'Driscoll Sneaks the Pot with a Small Pocket Pair
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
The action folded to the blinds. Gianfranco Iaculli limped, and Conor O'Driscoll checked.
The flop came J♣7♦7♠, and both players opted to check.
On the 8♠ turn, Iaculli led with a bet of 25,000, and his opponent called.
When the 2♣ landed on the river, Iaculli fired another bet of 115,000, and O'Driscoll again made the call, sending the hand to showdown. Iaculli had Q♣10♣ for queen-high, but O'Driscoll tabled 5♦5♠, enough to take the pot.
