Miracle River Rewards Whelan with $100 Bounty

Level 18 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Teresa Whelan raised to 30,000 from the cutoff and Mitchell Cogert responded by three-betting all in for 137,000 from the button. Both blinds folded and three free-wheeling Whelan made the call.

Whelan: {k-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Cogert: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}

The {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{6-Spades} flop gave Cogert a commanding lead with top two pair, but Whelan did flop a gutshot to Broadway. The {3-Clubs} turn was safe for Cogert, but then disaster struck when the {j-Diamonds} spiked on the river to give Whelan a winning straight.

Cogert exited in 26th place just two spots shy of the money.
