O'Dell Misses a "Big Draw" Against Warren

Level 1 : 300/600, 0 ante

Limit 2-7 Trriple Draw

"You gotta know that I had a big draw there after I raised," Frankie O'Dell said when he then checked after the final draw and Brett Warren checked behind. O'Dell flashed a king and Warren had that beat with a {9-}{8-}{6-}{4-}{2-}.

"I am just here to have fun with you guys. Don't you have a bracelet?" Warren, who was sporting a Kansas City Chiefs shirt, asked O'Dell who nodded and replied "yeah, I won a $10k Omaha Hi-Lo". The resume is even more impressive though, as O'Dell has three WSOP gold bracelets and four Circuit rings to his name.
