Couden Takes More From Freitas; Taylor Doubles With Quads

Level 25
Joey Couden
Joey Couden

No-Limit Hold'em

Joey Couden raised to 70,000 under the gun. It folded to Richard Freitas in the big blind, who defended. Couden continued for 75,000 on the 2♥9♦6♥ flop, and Freitas check-called.

The J♥ turn then checked through to the Q♥ river. Freitas dropped in a bet of 200,000, which Couden called after some thought. Freitas opted to forfeit the pot by mucking his cards, and Couden tabled Q♣J♣ for two pair.

Omaha Hi-Lo

Over at the other table, Thomas Taylor could be seen betting the 7♠K♦K♥5♣ turn from the big blind. Yu Li called under the gun, and reluctantly called off when Taylor pushed in his last 25,000 on the 9♥ river.

Taylor tabled K♠K♣J♣4♦ for quad kings, and Yu only briefly flashed AxQx10x before his cards were added to the muck.
