Couden Takes Out De Souza

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Four ways to a Q93 flop, it checked to Belarmino De Souza in middle position who bet 8,000. Joey Couden called on the button, Alexander Ivarsson folded in the small blind, and Sean Remz called from under the gun.

On the 6 turn, De Souza bet 37,400, leaving himself 500 behind. Couden jammed, Remz folded, and De Souza called off his last 500.

Belarmino De Souza: KK64 All in
Joey Couden: AAQ2

De Souza had a heart flush draw with kings while Couden held aces and the nut club draw with the nut low draw. The river was the 8, and Couden's aces were best, sending De Souza to the rail.
