First Three-Bet Pot to O'Dwyer
Level 21
: 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
The opening salvos between the players had been small, with the most notable moment perhaps being Chris Hunichen and Steve O'Dwyer discussing their mutual love for hot sauce �� O'Dwyer ordered some eggs and then reached into his backpack and whipped out a personal bottle of the stuff, which impressed Hunichen.
Finally, a three-bet pot broke out when Francois Billard opened for 44,000 on the button and O'Dwyer made it 140,000 to go in the small blind. Billard called, and the flop came 
. O'Dwyer fired out 180,000, and Billard gave it up after staring at the board for about 30 seconds.
