McGowan Losing Steam

[user22113]

Shane Schleger opened the pot to 5,500 from late position. After a call from the button, Joe McGowan raised it to 15,500 total. Max Greenwood, out of the big blind then moved all in for 76,000. Everyone folds back around to McGowan who makes the call.

Greenwood showed {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{K-Clubs}

and McGowan tabled {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

.

The board ran out {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

{10-Spades}

{A-Clubs}

{J-Diamonds}

{8-Clubs}

. This took McGowan down to 190,000.

The very next hand Mcgowan got it all in preflop against another opponent. Once again McGowan found himself in the same situation.

McGowan: {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

{10-Clubs}

Opponent:

McGowan held the lead on the flop of {J-Hearts}

{K-Spades}

and McGowan is down to 106,000.
