Mike O'Neill

Mike O'Neill opened for 90,000 with {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} and got action from Chris Moon on the button with {8-Clubs}{7-Clubs} and big blind Eric Salazar with {q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}.

The flop came {q-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{k-Hearts} and O'Neill continued for 130,000, with Salazar check-calling. On the {2-Hearts} turn, Salazar checked and O'Neill bet 250,000. Salazar jammed for 1.3 million and O'Neill thought about 30 seconds and flicked in a call.

The players showed down and Salazar said the sweat was real. He needed to fade a decent chunk of cards but the river was a safe {8-Hearts}.

Left under a big blind, O'Neill busted in short order.
