Raymond Coburn

The {8-Hearts} turned and Coburn led for 1,000,000. Rockowitz flicked his cards into the muck and the chips were shipped to Coburn.

Top Pair for Coburn

Most hands have been min-raised preflop by the button, and the last encounter was no exception. This time it was Jesse Rockowitz utilizing his position, Raymond Coburn making the call from the big blind.

On the {3-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} flop, Rockowitz led for 295,000 and Coburn made the call. With both players checking the {5-Spades} turn, Rockowitz announced a bet of 465,000 on the {4-Diamonds} river. Coburn made the call.

As Coburn turned {J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} onto the felt, Rockowitz nodded his head and mucked his cards.

Pure Imagination

The candy lady was just called over to the final table and Raymond Coburn's rail ordered basically everything on the menu compliments of Shaun Deeb. We may not be in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory, but perhaps one of our friends on the rail just received a golden ticket.

Clubbed to Death

Our two remaining Trojans reached a cheap flop of {7-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{J-Clubs} where Raymond Coburn bet 300,000. Jesse Rockowitz made the call, before check-calling a bet of 700,000 on the {Q-Spades} turn. On the {2-Clubs} river, however, he turned aggressor, leading for 930,000. Coburn called, but was chagrined to see Rockowitz turn over the {Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for the rivered flush.

Coburn Takes First Big Pot Heads Up

Jesse Rockowitz had the button and raised to 240,000. Raymond Coburn called.

The flop fell {8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} and Coburn check-called 295,000 from Rockowitz.

The {a-Clubs} turned and Coburn check-called another bet - this one was worth 745,000.

Both players checked the {k-Spades} on the turn and Rockowitz mucked when Coburn opened {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}.

Coburn is up to 8,350,000 chips while Rockowitz slipped to 5,500,000.
