Yung raked in the pot, eliminating her opponent from the tournament.

Cowan Wins Against Queens, Then Wins With Queens

Level 7 : 150/300, 25 ante

Jennifer Cowan was all in preflop with {a-Spades}{k-Spades} against Vicky Coren's {q-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}. The board rolled out {j-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{6-Spades}, giving Cowan a pair of aces on the flop and an unnecessary flush on the river. Cowan doubled up, and Coren dropped to 2,300.

On the very next hand, Cowan raised to 700 preflop, drawing one caller. Both players checked the {8-Hearts}{6-Clubs}{10-Clubs} flop, then Cowan led out for 1,200 when the {4-Spades} fell on the turn. Her opponent called, and the river was the {6-Diamonds}. Cowan led out again, this time for 2,000. Her opponent thought for a minute, then pushed forward chips for a call. This time, it was Cowan with the pocket queens, and her opponent mucked.

After the two hands, Cowan is up to 12,000.
