Cogert Eliminated Just Shy of the Break


Khoa Nguyen raised to 85,000 from middle position and action folded all the way around to Mitchell Cogert in the big blind. He decided to exercise his option with a three-bet to 250,000, Nguyen moved all in, and Cogert called off for 910,000.
Showdown
Cogert:
Nguyen:
Cogert was in great shape to double with his pocket kings, especially after the flop; however, the
turn gave Nguyen a pair of aces and the lead. Cogert's went from a big favorite to an extreme underdog. Needing one of the two kings, Cogert's run came to an end when the
blanked on the river.
