Cos-Grave Danger for Two Players Busted by Iversen

James Cosgrave and Paul Leckey have both been eliminated in one huge hand by Albert Iversen. It all started with an innocent preflop raise from another player entirely -- Cormac Delaney -- who made it 18,000 to go. Cosgrave moved all in next to act, with around 55,000 in front of him. Then button Paul Leckey called all in too (29,000).

Eyebrows were raised when small blind Iversen also chose to make the call (Delaney passed) but his {Q-Hearts} {Q-Spades} was ahead of Cosgrave's {J-Hearts} {J-Spades} and Leckey's {A-Diamonds} {K-Hearts}. Brief gutshot hopes were added for Leckey on the turn (the board {8-Clubs} {4-Spades} {2-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} ) but the river paired the five and the table is getting some more players.
