O'Dwyer Takes the Lead After Ousting Dvoress
Level 18
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Day 1 chip leader Daniel Dvoress got his shorter stack into the middle and earned a quick call by Steve O'Dwyer. The rest of the table got out of the way.
Daniel Dvoress: 
Steve O'Dwyer: 
The 
flop kept O'Dwyer ahead and Dvoress was in need of a jack to survive. Nothing changed with the 
turn and the 
river only improved O'Dwyer to a full house.
By claiming that pot, O'Dwyer leaped into the lead as Aleksejs Ponakovs three-bet folded to a shove by Adrian Mateos to forfeit 135,000 out of the big blind.
