Cotter's Hero Call Goes South
Ed Cotter called from middle position. Patrick Houchins did the same from the hijack, but Mike Rocco raised to 18,000 from the button. The blinds got out of the way, but both limpers came along to see the 
flop.
Cotter checked it to Houchins who moved all in for about 88,000. Rocco got out of the way, but Cotter went into the tank. After a little while he called and to the shock of the table, he tabled 
! Houchins tabled 
and needed a bit of help to survive. He found none from the 
turn, but got there when the 
hit the river.
