Set for Sowell
Level 13
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Jeff Sowell opened to 10,000 from middle position, Mark Jackson three-bet to 25,000 from the big blind, and Sowell called.
The flop came 8♠Q♦4♣ and both players checked, leading to the 2♦ turn. Jackson bet 20,000, Sowell raised to 75,000, and Jackson shoved for a bit more. Sowell snap-called with a covering stack to put him at risk.
Mark Jackson: A♦5♦
Jeff Sowell: 8♦8♥
Jackson had a gutshot and the nut-flush draw, while Sowell was ahead with a set. The Q♥ river improved Sowell to a full house, sending Jackson to the rail.
