Couden Doubles Up to Take Chip Lead
Level 25
: 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Joey Couden opened for 50,000 and John Michalak raised it to 200,000. Couden moved all in and Michalak snap-called. Couden raised his eyebrows and turned over 
.
"F***," groaned Michalak as he turned over 
.
The flop came 
keeping Couden in the lead. The 
on the turn changed nothing. The 
on the river gave Couden a straight as well as the big double up and he assumes a 3:1 chip lead over Michalak.
