Ryan O'Donnell's Pivotal Call in WSOP High Roller Final


In the $25k WSOP High Roller tournament final, Ryan O'Donnell made a crucial call against Brian Rast. Brian Rast opened with a raise of 320,000 from the hijack+1 position with two eights. Ryan O'Donnell had offsuit cards on the big blind and decided to call.

On the flop, O'Donnell had two possibilities: check-call or check-raise. On the turn, O'Donnell considered going all-in but decided to check again. On the river, O'Donnell faced a significant bet from Rast and decided to call.

O'Donnell's call resulted in him doubling his stack, which eventually helped him secure second place in the tournament.

I've spent years at the tables — cash and tournaments — and just as long shaping poker copy behind the scenes: room reviews, bonus fine print, tournament notes. At PokerInsider I write the way I wish more sites would: clear structure, honest trade-offs, no hype. Whether you're new or already grinding, I care about what the offer actually costs you — rake, variance, and the fine print — and I treat responsible play as part of the job, not a footnote.
