O'Dwyer Sends Lindgren Off

[user66118]

Will Failla opened to 4,000 from late position, and Erick Lindgren three-bet to 14,000 on the button. That brought the action to Steve O'Dwyer's big blind, and he spent a few long minutes in the tank. After some time, he announced, "Pot," and dumped a big stack of chips into the middle. Failla tanked and moaned and folded, and Lindgren quickly put his remaining ~15,000 into the middle to put himself at risk.

O'Dwyer rolled over {9-Hearts} {9-Spades} , and Lindgren nodded his head knowingly. He tabled {7-Spades} {7-Clubs} , and he needed some help. Failla said he folded ace-queen.

The board ran out {6-Diamonds} {K-Clubs} {5-Spades} {10-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} , and Failla almost shot out of his chair. Lindgren did leave his chair as he'd run out of chips, and there was some banter behind him as he left.

"I folded ace-queen," Failla said again.

"I know, I heard you the first time," O'Dwyer was chuckling. "I was hoping for the better thing where you fold the best hand, and then I knock out E-Dog."

O'Dwyer is in a good mood, and his chip stack has grown to about 75,000.
