Steve O'Dwyer entered Day 2 of the €25,500 High Roller with the chip lead after bagging 330,200 on Day 1. At the end of Day 2, O'Dwyer's stack was just about the same, finishing with a slightly larger 356,000. But instead of being on the top of the counts this time, he was stuck at the bottom of the remaining 12 heading into Day 3.
A former resident of the United States, O'Dwyer now resides overseas in Europe where he can actively play online poker without restriction.
Just a couple months ago, O'Dwyer scored first place in the 2015 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure $100,000 Super High Roller. He earned $1.872 million for that victory and propelled his live tournament winnings over $9 million. That was the largest live event score for O'Dwyer, but he's got plenty of other big ones to go along with it.
In November 2014, O'Dwyer took first in the Asia-Pacific Poker Tour Asia Championship of Poker for over $1.8 million. He's also a champion of the EPT Grand Final Main Event from here in Monaco in 2013. There he earned a top prize of €1.224 million.
