Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Eldon Penn opened to 3,000 from the cutoff. He received calls from a player on the button, and Daniel Lowery in the big blind.
The flop came A♣2♣3♣. Lowery checked, Penn checked, the button bet 4,000, and both opponents called.
The player on the button shoved for a bit over 35,000 when checked to on the Q♠ turn. Lowery called with a covering stack, and Penn folded.
Opponent: A♦5♠ 
Daniel Lowery: A♥8♠
Both players had top pair, but Lowery was ahead with the higher kicker. The K♠ river changed nothing for either player and Lowery won the hand, sending his opponent to the rail.
