Couden Gets Short and Doubles
Level 25
Seven-Card Stud
Yuri Dzivielevski: XxXx / 7♥5♠7♣
Joseph Couden: XxXx / K♠8♥4♦ folded on fifth street
Yuri Dzivielevski completed and called a raise by Joseph Couden, then bet fourth and earned a call. Dzivielevski bet his lead on fifth and Couden reluctantly folded.
Omaha Hi-Lo
Couden was then all-in against Nicholas Julia on a flop of Q♦J♠6♠ in the next game rotation.
Joseph Couden: A♦9♣3♣2♥ 
Nicholas Julia: A♠10♦5♦2♠
The 5♣ turn and 3♦ river gave both the nut low and Julia had the superior pair to earn three quarters.
Down to 120,000, Couden was all-in preflop against Richard Ashby.
Joseph Couden: A♣J♥10♥6♥
Richard Ashby: K♦Q♣Q♦4♠
The A♦K♥3♣2♥10♣ board ensured a full double for Couden as he kept his hopes alive.
