Huge Double-Up for Coatar
Geoffrey Coatar had been itching to get all of his chips into a pot. He was squirming and squeezing cards hoping for a playable hand. He finally got one.
Daniel Cosner raised to 1,400,000 chips preflop from the cutoff and Coatar called, saying he had lost a lot of money on the hand he was playing.
The flop came 5♥10♦9♠. Cosner fired again, this time to the tune of 1,600,000 chips. Coatar hopped into the pot immediately.
When the 6♦ hit on the turn, Cosner bet out, Coatar went over the top with a raise to more than 5,000,000. When Cosner made the call, Coatar was so excited that he turned over his cards for a second, thinking he had been put all in.
It is unclear whether Cosner saw both cards, but when the dealer tabled the 5♦ on the river, Cosner went all in. Coatar quickly called and shouted with glee.
Geoffrey Coatar: Q♦9♦
Daniel Cosner: 8♦7♦
Cosner had turned a straight, while Coatar needed runner runner to make a diamond flush that was bigger than Cosner's.
