O'Dwyer Doesn't Stay for Long
The cards have been in the air for less than 60 minutes and there have already been two players sent to the rail. Steve O'Dwyer brought a fresh stack to the table as one of the new entries but was unable to make it last very long. When the action folded to O'Dwyer on the button, he raised it up only to have Mikita Badziakouski three-bet to 200,000 in the big blind. O'Dwyer four-bet shoved and Badziakouski called.
O'Dwyer turned over 
and was flipping for stacks against Badziakouski's 
. The flop came 
to leave Badziakouski in the lead with two pair. The 
on the turn changed nothing and the 
completed the board. It took just one hand and O'Dwyer was already eliminated.
At the other tables, David Peters has continued to build on his chip lead by going for thin value against Nick Petrangelo. With four cards to a straight on the board, Peters bet 400,000 on the river with top two pair and Petrangelo paid him off with a weaker hand. Isaac Haxton has also had a strong start to the day while his partypoker teammate Jason Koon is heading in the opposite direction.
