Bedell Busts
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Robert Cowen had raised to 6,000 from the cutoff when Tom-Aksel Bedell shoved in his last 11,500 from the small blind. Stanislau Melhui then four-bet to 41,500 in the big blind, which Cowen called.
Melhui bet the pot of 98,000 on the 2♣3♠9♣ flop before committing his remaining 78,000 chips on the K♣ turn. Cowen called twice and all three showed down.
Tom-Aksel Bedell: J♠10♣9♥7♥
Stanislau Melhui: K♠Q♠Q♣10♦
Robert Cowen: K♦J♥9♠2♠
Cowen was in the lead with his two pair, but the J♣ river made Melhui a straight for slightly more than a double-up, sending Bedell out.
