O'Brien Gets Some Back

Giovanni Rosadoni had the button. He completed and Dan O'Brien checked his option.

The flop brought {As]{10-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and O'Brien check-called a 26,000 chip bet. Both players checked the {6-Hearts} turn and the board paired when the {6-Spades} spiked on the river. O'Brien let out for 48,000 and Rosadoni called, showing {10-Spades}{9-Hearts} for a pair of tens.

O'Brien held {A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, however, for a pair of aces, and was able to take down the pot.

Picking up with the action on the turn, the board read {J-Spades}{8-Spades}{5-Spades}{6-Clubs} and Giovanni Rosadoni checked. Dan O'Brien bet 75,000 and Rosadoni responded by moving all in for 287,000. O'Brien called and the hands were shown:

Rosadoni: {J-Hearts}{8-Hearts}
O'Brien: {K-Spades}{K-Clubs}

Rosadoni was ahead with his two pair but O'Brien had outs to make a better two pair, a set, or a spade to make the flush. Unfortunately for O'Brien, the river was the {4-Clubs} and Rosadoni was able to double up again.

Level 11 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Dan O'Brien had the button and raised to 24,000. Giovanni Rosadoni called and the flop came {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{8-Hearts}. Rosadoni fired 21,000 and O'Brien called the bet.

The turn was the {K-Clubs} and they both checked. The {A-Clubs} fell down on the river and Rosadoni moved 36,000 into the center. O'Brien called and Rosadoni tapped the table and said "Good call,"

Rosadoni then showed {J-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for a pair of eights which prompted O'Brien to muck his cards and the pot was pushed to Rosadoni.

Three-Ovani

Level 11 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Giovanni Rosadoni has taken down the last three hands in a row.

In a limped pot preflop, both players checked the {A-Diamonds}{5-Spades}{4-Clubs} flop. The {6-Diamonds} turned and Rosadoni's bet of 26,000 took down the pot.

The next hand Rosadoni led out for 26,000 on a {Q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop and took it down.

Finally, Dan O'Brien raised to 24,000 from the button and Rosadoni called. The {7-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop prompted Rosadoni to bet 18,000 and he took it down.

Rosadoni Doubles Up

In the classic coinflip scenario, Giovanni Rosadoni was just all in for his tournament life holding {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} before the flop.

Dan O'Brien held {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} and was looking to pair up to seal the deal.

The board fell {J-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}, however, and Rosadoni's set of queens scored him a double up and kept him alive in this heads up match.
