Bowker Bows Out

Kyle Bowker was down around 3,000 chips when he three-bet shoved into Mohsin Charania's opening raise. (Word on the street is that Bowker ran pocket aces into pocket kings earlier in the day.) Charania quickly made the call with {Q-} {Q-}, and Bowker's {K-} {Q-} was in a world of trouble.

The board ran out {2-}{8-}{q-}{j-}{7-}, and Bowker was already drawing dead with one to come. He's gone, and Charania needed that pot as it boosts his stack back to about 11,200.
