Usterud Leads Into Cowen as Krzesinski Sits Down
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Picking up the action on a 4♥5♦3♠2♥ turn, Stian Usterud checked from the small blind to Robert Cowen in the big blind, who fired a bet of 30,000.
Usterud called to the 3♣ river, where he promptly led for a pot-sized bet of 91,000. Cowen needed one time bank before he called; however, he started shaking his head as Usterud tabled 7♥7♣2♠2♣ for a rivered full house.
Cowen's cards eventually hit the muck. In the meantime, Tomasz Krzesinski had taken his seat as the newest entry of the tournament.
