Kaupp and Messick Chip Up
Level 27
: 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Benjamin Kaupp limped the small blind and Raul Garza then made it 250,000 to go in the big blind. What followed was a limp-raise to 850,000 by Kaupp and Garza snap-folded.
Ryan Messick then min-raised to 160,000 as the first player to act with 
and Robert Cowen called from the big blind with 
. On a flop of 
flop, Cowen check-called for 125,000 and the 
turn went check, check.
After the 
river, Cowen checked once more and Messick now bet 425,000. The reluctant fold by Cowen folded as Messick recovered some chips.
