O'Hara Begins the Rebuild
Level 29
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Alexander Greenblatt raised the cutoff to 300,000. A player in the small blind called before Ian O'Hara three-bet to 570,000, leaving just 85,000 behind.
Greenblatt responded by moving all in, forcing the small blind to fold, and when a pay jump looked unlikely for O'Hara, he called.
Ian O'Hara: A♣K♠ 
Alexander Greenblatt: A♥Q♠
O'Hara had the lead but was wary, having not long ago lost in a similar situation.
No bad beat this time though as the board ran out 3♣4♦K♥5♣3♥, giving O'Hara the double up and some.
