Cozen Catches an Ace to Survive

Level 19

Razz

Randy Ohel bet on fourth street, Glenn Cozen raised all in, and Ohel called.

Ohel finished with Ax2x3x4x4x8xKx as Cozen had 2x5x6x7x7x9x heading to seventh. "You need to improve," Ohel said as Cozen peeled his last card, turning over an Ax to make a 7-6-5-2-A and double up.

"I started with two wheel cards. Then I looked down and got excited and I got what I deserved," Ohel said.
