Wyraz Doubles Through ODonnell
Feb 22, 2013
Everyone folds around to our chip leader, Bodo Sbrzesny who is seated on the button. He rarely needs an excuse to put in a raise and that is exactly what he does, raising to 6,000. Ryan O’Donnell is next to act and he decides to protect his small blind by three-betting to 14,000.
Poland’s Grzegorz Wyraz is in the big blind but all of the raising does not seem to have bothered him in the slightest. He is eyeing up the stacks of his potential opponents. He continues to continue his options for a full minute before settling on four-betting to 27,500. Sbrzensy quickly folds but O’Donnell leans to his left to gauge the size of the four-bettor’s stack then announces he is all in.
“I call,” says Wyraz with a surprised expression on his face.
O’Donnell: [Qd][Qh]
A real cooler hand here in the opening level and one that looks to be going Wyraz’s way. The flop falls [9d][8s][5d], the turn is the [Ks] and the river the [Ad]. O’Donnell has to hand over 135,500 of his stack, not an ideal start for him at all.
