O'Donnell on His Way to Sixteen

Ryan O'Donnell

We don't know exactly how the action went preflop, but we do know Michael Ferrell was all in and at risk against Ryan O'Donnell. Holding {5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} O'Donnell was basically in a race situation as his opponent, Ferrell possessed {A-Clubs}{j-Clubs}.

A {4-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{2-Diamonds} looked to be just what O'Donnell needed to help deliver the knock out. a {A-Diamonds} turn though caused Ferrell to take a strong lead heading to the turn.

A {5-Spades} miracle river allowed for O'Donnell to retake the lead, and the match as his full house fives over twos was more than enough to eliminate Ferrell.
