Cooper Quarters Samuel
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
John Bunch limped from early position, Errol Samuel raised to 20,000 in middle position, Wesley Cooper called from the small blind, and Bunch called as well.
On the 7?6?5? flop, the action checked to Samuel who bet 25,000. Cooper responded with a check-pot to 135,000, and only Samuel called.
The turn brought the J?. Cooper bet his remaining 21,000 and Samuel called.
Wesley Cooper: A?Q?6?3?2? 
Errol Samuel: A?K?Q?3?2?
The river was the A? and both players held three-two to chop the low while Cooper took the high with two pair, aces and sixes. Cooper started the day with just 54,000 and has been steadily accumulating chips.
