Frankie O'Dell (from earlier in the WSOP)

Following a limp from Chris Hunichen in middle position, Frankie O'Dell raised to 1,000 next to act as both blinds and Hunichen called.

The flop landed {j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}, and action checked to O'Dell who tossed in 500. The small blind folded, but both the big blind and Hunichen check-called as the turn landed the {q-Clubs}.

The big blind led out for 1,000 and Hunichen raised. O'Dell called, as did the big blind.

The river landed the {4-Diamonds}, and action checked to O'Dell, and he bet 1,000. Both the big blind and Hunichen called, and when O'Dell fanned his {a-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Clubs} for the wheel, they both mucked and O'Dell scooped the pot.
