Level 28 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Michael Cohen
Michael Cohen

Paul Balzano opened to 150,000 from middle position and Robert Manjura called. Michael Cohen three-bet shoved a little bit over 1,700,000 from the button and Balzano instantly jammed over the top. Manjura hit the tank but in the end, he folded {q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs} face-up and the two that remained tabled their hands.

Michael Cohen: {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}
Paul Balzano: {j-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}

The flop came down {k-Spades}{7-Spades}{2-Hearts} and Cohen was in need of a dime to stay alive. The {4-Diamonds} landed on the turn and {5-Spades} on the river, failing to help Cohen as he was eliminated by the jacks of Balzano.
