{8-Clubs}

{5-Hearts}

{J-Spades}

. Clements leads out with a bet of 750, and Gill bumps it up to 2,200. Clements comes back over the top all in, and Gill puts his chips in as well, tabling {K-Clubs}

{K-Clubs}

{K-Spades}

. Clements sees the bad news: his {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

is also an overpair to the board, but is drawing very slim against the cowboys.

The turn and river come {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{3-Clubs}

respectively, failing to help Clements, and knocking him down to 2,500 chips. Gill, meanwhile, has climbed up close to 9,000.
