O'Rourke Can Not Be Stopped

[user162117]

Liam O'Rourke has just won the biggest pot of the whole tournament and now easily hold the chip lead. It all started when the pot was opened to 6,000 from middle position. The player in the small blind made the call and then O'Rourke three-bet to 19,000 out of the big blind. The opener thought very hard before letting his hand go and the small blind instantly called.

The {2-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {5-Spades} flop would see the small blind player lead for 17,000 and O'Rourke make the call. The {3-Diamonds} turn saw O'Rourke's opponent lead for 20,000. O'Rourke then raised it up to 56,000 and his opponent made one of the quickest calls we have ever seen.

The {8-Spades} completed the board on the river and just as quickly as the player called on the last street, he announced he was all in. O'Rourke wasn't so quick in his decision, but eventually made the call, tabling his {a-Hearts} {3-Spades} . O'Rourke's opponent reluctantly turned over his {a-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} and said, "good luck to you buddy."
