Ramdin Loses With Kings And Then Busts

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

Victor Ramdin first lost a massive pot with pocket kings against {A-}{K-} to remain crippled in chips. He was all in shortly after and got called by Tristan Wade and another opponent. The latter bet the {5-Clubs}{A-Spades}{J-Clubs} flop for 1,000 and Wade called, both checked the {8-Hearts} turn. On the {9-Hearts} river, Wade made it 3,500 to go and the opponent mucked.

Ramdin: {10-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}
Wade: {6-Spades}{7-Spades}

That's it for Ramdin and he left the tournament area quickly.

Cohen Times Two

Level 7 : 200/400, 50 ante

The self proclaimed queen of "chip porn selfies", Sam Cohen, has doubled the stack from the last count we got on her. After returning from dinner break she won some pots and then had a short stack three-bet-shove the small blind for 5,000 with pocket nines. Cohen had raised the button to 1,000 and called with jacks, the {10-}{5-}{4-}{K-}{8-} board ran out in her favor.
