Cowan's Back in Town!

Jennifer Cowan had been nursing a very short stack throughout the final stanza of play, but she's just scored some chips through Karen Fisher to move up to 110,000.

The action folded to Fisher who raised to 30,000 from the cutoff before Cowan insta-shoved from the big blind for 56,000. Fisher called, showing down {Q-Hearts}{10-Spades} but needed some assistance from the poker gods after Cowan revealed {A-Hearts}{4-Hearts}.

And lo, the poker gods did not hear her prayers, as the board ran out {7-Hearts}{5-Spades}{K-Clubs}{7-Spades}{2-Diamonds} to give Cowan the double-up.
