ClubGG Qualifier Molsen Doubles, Leaves Cooney Short

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante

Rose Cooney saw action fold to her in the cutoff and open-jammed for 48,400. ClubGG Qualifier Matt Molsen called all in for 33,400 in the big blind.

Molsen: {k-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Cooney: {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

Molsen found himself needing to fade Cooney's two live undercards until the flop {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{j-Clubs} gave him top two pair. Needing only to fade running clubs for elimination or running straight cards for a chop, the latter remained a possibility on the turn {a-Hearts}. However, the river {7-Clubs} was safe and he scored the full double, leaving Cooney with just 15K after the pot was made right.

"How Did I Get So Lucky?!"

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante

An all in and call were overheard as stacks got into the middle preflop with an under-the-gun player at risk for 49,000 against Rusty Wooten in the hijack.

Under the Gun: {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}
Wooten: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

Wooten found himself in even better shape after the flop {a-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and left his opponent drawing dead after the turn {5-Spades} hit the felt. The river {8-Spades} completed the runout and the pot was shipped his way.

"How did I get so lucky?!" remarked Wooten of coolering his opponent, and he now has a six-figure stack with a handful of minutes remaining in Level 11.

Additionally, Richard Bolden was spotted at an adjacent table with a stack nearing a quarter-million. He appears to be the largest stack in the room among the nine tables now left in play.
