Cooper Scores Massive Double-Up on the Bubble
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
The dinner break chip leader Yuzu Wang bet 30,000 from the button and was met with a raise from Christian Cooper on the big blind for 65,000. Yuzu Wang responded with a shove and Christian Cooper snap-called for 350,000 which is a massive 35 big blinds.
Yuzu Wang: 10?10?
Christian Cooper: A?K?
A massive flip for a 72 big blind pot. There was no help for Cooper on the 8?6?4? flop, nor the 8? turn but the A? on the river gave Cooper the deadman's hand, but it gave the budding vlogger life and a huge stack.
It will be interesting to revisit this hand from Cooper's YouTube vlog Poker Esquire when it is uploaded!
