Cohen Calls Clock... On Herself

Livello 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

After her opponent shoved all-in over her raise, Samantha Cohen went into the tank and thought things over. Eventually, she asked the dealer to call the clock on herself and after a few seconds of counting she folded her {10-Hearts}{10-Spades}.

Her opponent seemed surprised by this move and decided to needle Cohen a bit, showing his {6-Hearts}{7-Hearts} while collecting the pot. Cohen responded to this jab by stating "it's fine, I still have more than twice as many chips as you" while making sure that PokerNews.com knew what had just gone down.

Mizrachi Moving Up

Eric Mizrachi Making Most of His All-In Encounters
Eric Mizrachi Making Most of His All-In Encounters

Eric Mizrachi has been nursing a short stack throughout the latter stages of Day 2, but after his latest double up he can breathe a little easier. After a player in middle position raised before the flop, Mizrachi pushed all-in for 32,000 more and was called by the initial bettor, who tabled the {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}.

The {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} held by Mizrachi needed help to improve and that help arrived in the form of a {K-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{7-Spades} flop. A {J-Hearts} on the turn provided his opponent four additional outs in the form of a gutshot straight draw, but a {6-Hearts} on the river was a blank and Mizrachi had doubled up. He now sits with just under 72,000 chips.

Koral Slides

Livello 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Tom Koral has just doubled an opponent up to now sit with just under 30,000 in chips.

All the money went in preflop with Koral's {A-Spades}{9-Clubs} trailing his opponent's {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}.

The board ran out {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} to see Koral ship a large portion of his stack over to his opponent to slip to 28,000 in chips.

In the Frey

Livello 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

A player in early position open-raised for 7,000 and ran into an all-in raise for 32,000. Hunter Frey re-raised all-in for over 300,000 and the original raiser folded.

Frey: {A-}{K-}
Opponent: {A-}{7-}

Frey had a small sweat when the flop came a {3-}{4-}{6-} for a potential gut-shot, but the turn and river bricked, shipping Frey the pot. Frey is now up to 355,000.

Cross Spikes Queens, Eliminates Another

Livello 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Valerie Cross raised to 8,000 from early position and was met with an all-in raise to 30,000 from the cutoff. Cross asked for a count and then slid out a call.

Cross: {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{J-Hearts}

The {8-Spades}{4-Hearts}{5-Spades}{9-Hearts} board wasn't looking too promising for Cross, but a {Q-Spades} hit the river, pairing her hand and sending her opponent to the rail.

Cross' stack is now among the chip leaders at 325,000.

Cohen Continues Climbing

Livello 16 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

We just witnessed two hands involving Samantha Cohen and after winning each of them, she now sits among or leaders with a stack of approximately 260,000 chips.

First, Cohen raised to 7,500 from the button and faced an all-in three-bet of 23,500 by a player in the big blind. Her {Q-Spades}{Q-Clubs} held up against the opponent's {A-Hearts}{8-Hearts} after the board ran out {5-}{4-}{J-}{4-}{2-}.

Just a few hands later, Cohen saw a flop of {2-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} in a heads-up pot. With around 25,000 chips up for grabs both players checked the turn of {6-Clubs} and we saw a river of {7-Hearts}.

Cohen led out for a bet of 25,000 and after a minute or so of deliberation, her opponent made the crying call. Cohen tabled the {A-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for a rivered two pair and she now sits with one of the largest stacks in the tournament.
