Level 25
: 8,000/16,000, 1,500 ante
Steve O'Dwyer has been on a tear today, and has had a stack worthy of a chipleader for most of the day. He did just let one go, however, which resulted in a double up for tablemate Michiel Broskij.
With 200,000 in the middle O'Dwyer bet 125,000 on a 
flop. Oliver Lucas Blanco called on the button, and called again when Broskij put his 552,500 at risk from the small blind.
Broskij:
Blanco:
