Cohen Powers Up, Takes Down Pot

Level 1 : Blinds 100/200, 200 ante

Matthew Cohen found himself in the small blind and watched some heavy action before he acted.

A player in early position raised 700 and then a player in late position three-bet to 1,700.

Cohen then looked down at his cards and four-bet to 4,500, which forced out the original raiser. The player in late position flatted.

The dealer fanned 47K on the flop, after which Cohen led out for 3,000. His opponent called.

The turn showed 10 and Cohen didn’t slow down with a 4,500 bet. Cohen’s action caused anxiety for his opponent, who alternated looks between his hand and the board. After a few moments, he showed JJ before mucking his hand.

“That’s respect,” Cohen’s opponent said.

Cohen then showed K in return before giving his hand to the dealer.

“That was a very good flop for me,” Cohen replied.
