Pather Has Cooke Dead on the Turn
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Three ways to the 10♠K♣J♣ flop with 115,000 in the pot, Mark Rubin checked from the big blind and Kathy Cooke bet 60,000 from the hijack. Kinesh Pather raised to 160,000 on the button, which only Cooke called.
Cooke knuckled it over to Pather on the 6♥ turn and Pather bet 250,000, leaving himself with just 130,000 behind. Cooke check-jammed and Pather snap-called to put himself at risk.
Kinesh Pather: J♦J♠
Kathy Cooke: J♥10♥
Pather had a set of jacks, leaving Cooke drawing dead with two pair. An irrelevant 9♠ arrived on the river, and Pather secured the double-up.
Cooke was left with just a few big blinds and was eliminated shortly afterward.
