Roch Takes Bell's Chips
![[user162117]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Folded to Chris Bell on the button, he flicked out a raise. Roch Cousineau called in the small blind, and with the big blind out of the way, the dealer would spread out a 
flop. Cousineau check-called a bet of 120,000 here and then both players checked the 
turn and the 
river. Cousineau tabled his 
at showdown, which was enough to see Bell's cards into the muck and plenty of chips into Cousineau's stack.

Slow Going
Level 26
: 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
Action has been fairly slow in the last ten minutes, but that hasn't dissipated the excitement of the various rails here in the Amazon Room. Among them are a long list of notables, most of who are here to root on David "ODB" Baker.
Some of the faces we recognize along the rail are Greg "FBT" Mueller (who Baker beat heads-up for his first bracelet earlier this year), Erick Lingren, Ray Henson, Gavin Smith, Layne Flack, Ken "Teach" Aldridge and Chip Jett.
Exciting Chopped Pot
Level 26
: 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
It's not often that a chopped pot is overly exciting, but recently the whole rail was on their feet and shouting who knows what from every direction. The hand in question was between Chris Bell and Roch Cousineau. Bell got all his chips in on a 
flop, check-shoving after Cousineau bet 185,000. Cousineau called and the two players turned their hands over.
Cousineau:   |
Bell:  |
Couineau had the set of aces, while Bell had the wheel draw, which was also a straight-flush draw. The 
on the turn was the card that everyone got to their feet for, with Bell now having the wheel draw (all spades), a jack-high straight draw (also a straight-flush draw), a spade flush draw and a diamond flush draw, along with of course, having the low draw. The 
on the river would be the card that split the pot in half and sent the rail back into their chairs.

Zhukov Doubles Big Through Baker
Viacheslav Zhukov has just managed to double up through David "ODB" Baker. It all started when Zhukov raised to 85,000 from the cutoff. Baker then three-bet to 300,000 from the button and the blinds got out of the way. Back on Zhukov and he moved all in for 620,000. Baker seemed reluctant, but made the call.
Baker:   |
Zhukov:   |
The 
flop put Baker in front, but the turn was terrible for Baker. The 
on the river left Zhukov in front and he took the double up against Baker.

Bell and Baker Chop Big One
Level 27
: 25,000/50,000, 0 ante
Chris Bell is the shortest stack at the table, but is doing everything he can to remedy that. He and David "ODB" Baker recently got all the chip in on a 
flop after committing 200,000 in chips preflop. Here is how their cards looked.
Baker:  |
Bell:   |
The 
turn was great for Bell, but the 
river meant that the pot would be chopped up. Back to square one for Bell.
Nothing Much But a Small One For Rocky
Level 27
: 25,000/50,000, 0 ante
The four players have pretty much been sharing chips for the last ten minutes, with a raise picking up the blinds. One of the few flops we have seen was between Roch Cousineau and Viacheslav Zhukov. Folded to Cousineau in the small blind, he raised it up to 125,000. Zhukov called and the dealer spread out a 
flop. Cousineau led for 176,000 here and when Zhukov folded, Cousineau's rail exploded in excitement.
