Bowker Eliminates Opponent
Level 7
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
A player from early position put in a raise to 3,000 to begin the action. Raymond Bowker woke up with a hand he wanted to go with and chose to go all-in for 17,900 from the hijack.
The original raiser counted out his stack and called off for 17,000 effective to put himself at risk against Bowker.
Opponent: K♠10♠
Raymond Bowker: K♦Q♥
Bowker had his opponent's hand dominated, and the flop improved his standing as it came 2♥Q♠3♥, leaving a slim opportunity for his opponent to improve.
The turn was a juicy card as it peeled the J♠ to give Bowker's opponent a multitude of outs, but none of them appeared when the 5♦ river completed the board to award Bowker the pot.
