Cowen Smacks the River to Bust Two

Level 12 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Robert Cowen
Robert Cowen

Bryce Yockey bet 35,000 from the hijack on a flop of Q3K and Biao Ding moved all in for 160,000 on the button. Robert Cowen then reshoved in the big blind, and Yockey called for his last 230,000.

Biao Ding: QQJJ All in
Bryce Yockey: KK64 All in
Robert Cowen: AJ108

Ding had flopped a set of queens, but Yockey had top set and was poised to scoop the pot. The turn was the 5, but the 9 river gave Cowen a straight to send both Ding and Yockey to the rail.
