Cohen Crushed, Henry on a High

Cohen: will be having nightmares for a while ...
Cohen: will be having nightmares for a while ...
Clint Cohen had a dream start to the day, taking the overall chip lead on 61,500 within the first two levels, but has just been eliminated shortly after a monster hand that played out on table 29.

Trevor Henry raised it up to 3,400 from early position, only to see another opponent raise all in for 14,100. Cohen called, but Henry came over the top for 32,700 in total. Cohen made the call and the cards were tabled:

Henry: {A-Diamonds}{A-Clubs}
Opponent: {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}
Cohen: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

The board ran out {2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}, eliminating the all-in opponent and leaving Cohen with just 800. He was busted a short while later.

Meanwhile Henry has skyrocketed up the chip counts, now with 80,000 in his stack.
