O'Neill Turns a Knockout
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Jack O'Neill had raised to 10,000 from middle position when an early position player reraised to 38,000 all in. O'Neill considered the all in while other players at his table goaded him. He found the call, and saw that he was behind.
Early Position: A?Q?
Jack O'Neill: A?J?
The 8?Q?10? flop gave the early position player top pair, but also gave O'Neill plenty of opportunities to turn the tables. One of them hit immediately on the turn, K?, and the early position player rationalized as he stood up, "It's okay. I wanted you to call." A 2? river made the bust out official.
"Call this one 'O'Neill Gets It in Bad and Gets Lucky'," suggested another player to a round of laughs.
