Nelson Avoids Disaster; Haverner Left With Crumbs
Level 12
: 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
After a raise from Ian Nelson under the gun, Don Havener three-bet to 15,000 in the small blind. Mark Koeln called in the big blind, and Nelson four-bet jammed for 131,700. Havener called and Koeln folded.
Ian Nelson: 
Don Havener: 
Koeln sprung up from the table after the 
flop fell, while Havener could only watch as the 
turn and 
river failed to save him from the ultimate cooler.
"I had quad sevens, swear to God!" Koeln told the table after the hand, while Havener sent all but almost five big blinds of his stack over to Nelson. Havener would bust a short time later.
