Coughtrie Chipping Up

Jarrod Coughtrie

"We are alive," said Jarrod Coughtrie as he raked in a full double-up courtesy of Timo Ruuska. Ruuska had eights, and Coughtrie made two pair with king-deuce suited on the turn and river of Q 10 J 2 K . Ruuska, left short, then doubled through Keranen. In a preflop all in, Keranen had Q 8 and Ruuska K 7 . Ruuska asked for a nine on the turn after the dealer fanned 10 Q J flop. He got his wish with the 9 and the 8 river changed nothing. Keranen has a substantial lead three-handed.
