Steve O’Dwyer Exits in 5th ($75,000)
There will be no back-to-back trophies in this event for Steve O’Dwyer. Having picked his spots to shove before the bubble bursting, he found another in the cutoff post-bubble with [KsJh]. Button Igor Kurganov gave it some thought with [Ah8c], eventually opting to call the 2,540,000.
The board ran out [7s2c8dtc2s], propelling Kurganov into a frankly alarming chip lead and O’Dwyer to the cash desk.
