button in SafariPaxton Shoves into Lowery
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
A player in early position opened to 3,000, a player in middle position called, and Doug Paxton called on the button. Daniel Lowery squeezed to 14,000 from the big blind, and only Paxton called.
The flop came Q♣8♥4♦. Paxton called an 11,500 continuation bet from Lowery.
Lowery bet 14,000 on the 10♣ turn, and Paxton shoved for 96,800. Lowery thought for about a minute before folding J♣J♥ face up, and Paxton took the pot without showdown.
Interestingly, Paxton won the inaugural edition of this event in 2006, featuring a $3,000 buy-in at the time. Paxton was the last player standing from 153 entries in that event, earning $121,452.
