Robert Cowen Eliminated in 20th Place ($103,093)
Level 21
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Jonas Kronwitter raised to 350,000 on the button as Robert Cowen, who had less behind, got up to look around at the stacks on the other tables before calling for his last 165,000. Big blind Eelis Parssinen also called.
The flop came J?K?A? and Kronwitter's bet of 200,000 got rid of Parssinen, leaving him heads-up against Cowen.
Robert Cowen: A?A?8?4?
Jonas Kronwitter: A?5?3?3?
Cowen had flopped top set to take a big lead in the hand as the 5? turn gave Kronwitter the nut flush draw. He completed the flush on the 10? river and the defending champion was sent to the rail in 20th place thanks to that bad beat.
