Cohen with the Back-Raise
A player opened from under the gun with a raise to 750, and action folded to Sam Cohen in the hijack seat. She flat-called before play folded to Igor Kurganov on the button. Kurganov reraised to 2,500, which knocked out the two blinds and the under-the-gun raiser. Cohen was back up and took her time. She then reraised to 7,200. Kurganov studied, checked Cohen's stack, then called.
The flop came down 
with Cohen up first. She dumped 7,500 across the betting line, and Kurganov mucked his hand.
