Sowers' Opponent Lies

The board showed {K-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {9-Spades} {J-Spades} in a pot contested between Mike Sowers and one player. Sowers' opponent checked, then min-raised to 6,500 after Sowers bet 3,250. Sowers called.

The river fell {6-Hearts}. Again Sowers' opponent checked, remarking that he did not intend to call a bet larger than 6,000 chips. Sowers made no response other than to bet 6,100. His opponent tanked and called with {Q-Spades} {J-Clubs}, a pair of jacks. They were good; Sowers mucked and dropped to 13,400.
