O��Neill Makes the Right Call
Padraig O'Neill opened to 100,000 from the hijack and was three-bet to 280,000 by Dejan Jakovljevic on the button. Action folded back around to O��Neill, who called.
O��Neill check-called a 160,000 bet from Jakovljevic on the 6?3?3? flop and a 380,000 barrel from Jakovljevic on the 7? turn.
The 2? completed the board and and O��Neill checked once more. Jakovljevic wasn��t done, however, and after using up two time extensions he fired 650,000 into the middle.
O��Neill counted out calling chips and used up a few time extensions himself as he pondered his decision. Eventually, he slid calling chips into the middle, which was met with an immediate muck from Jakovljevic.
O��Neill declined to show and he collected the large pot while Jakovljevic fell under a million in chips.
