Cohen Carnage Continues
Martin Jacobson has done nothing but lose in the past few minutes - no big pots, but he's lost a series of small ones and is now down to just 2.4 million.
Jacobson raised to 260,000 from the button and Lucien Cohen called to see a flop on which he check-called another 260,000 from Jacobson. They both checked the turn and saw a river. Cohen bet out 600,000 and Jacobson laid it down.
The one bit of luck that Jacobson experienced was when he raised from the button and Cohen called. They checked down the board until the river, when Cohen just open-folded.
But after that, it was straight back to losing.
Jacobson called Cohen's 260,000 button raise but then check-folded to 500,000 from Cohen on the flop.
The next hand he checked his option to a limp from Cohen, before check-folding to Cohen's 350,000 bet on the flop.
And the hand after that, Jacobson raised his button and Cohen called to see a flop. Cohen checked, Jacobson bet 270,000, and then folded to Cohen's 600,000 check-raise.
Jacobson is now in possession of less than 10% of the chips in play. He's going to have to make some kind of a move soon if he's not going to finish second in this EPT.
