Lovely Ladies Extra Nice to Powell

Julian Powell may not have been kidding when he told Tony Dunst he is running like God today. After one player limped into the pot, Powell raised to 1,300. The limper was the only caller.

On a {Q-Hearts} {4-Hearts} {Q-?} flop, the limper checked to Powell, who bet 1,200. Powell's opponent check-raised to 4,000, but Powell was undeterred and made the call. Both players checked through when the {Q-Clubs} hit the turn. On the river {5-?}, Powell bet 4,000 after his opponent checked. His opponent tanked long enough for a clock to be called, and eventually timed out when he did not act upon his hand.

With that pot, Powell climbed to 60,000. He told the table he had ace-queen.
