O'Brien Survives...

When we first got back from the break, some time was taken over at Dan O'Brien's table to determine whether perhaps the stack to which he returned to was 20,000 short from what he had remembered when we went to break. The discussion lasted several minutes, with O'Brien ultimately deciding he must've miscounted. (A check of the video will be made nonetheless.)
Meanwhile, play resumed, and soon after O'Brien was moved to the neighboring table (following Daniel Hirleman's bustout), a hand arose in which he open-pushed all in from the small blind for his last 220,000 with 
and got a caller in Matthew Vengrin who held 
in the big blind.
The flop came 
, pairing O'Brien. His hand remained best through the 
turn and 
river, and he now sits with about 455,000. Vengrin now has 395,000.
