Level 24
: 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Down to just shy of 300,000 in chips, Joey Couden moved all in after John Michalak limped in from the small blind. Michalak made the call with 
and would need to improve against Coden's 
if he was going to take home the title.
The board ran out 
and Couden secured the double up but is still facing a more than 3:1 chip disadvantage. Have to start somewhere though and this is a step in the right direction.
