Hayes Doubles Through Sowers

John Hayes had the button.

Harrison Gimbel brought in for 1,000 and four players followed suit. Mike Sowers raised to 31,000 only to find Hayes move all in from the button. It folded back to Sowers and he called, showing {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds} but was behind Hayes' {K-Spades}{K-Diamonds}.

Sowers paired up on the {Q-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} but still needed more help to send Hayes to the rail. The {7-Spades} came on fourth and the {3-Spades} on fifth, ensuring Hayes a double up as his kings were able to hold.
