Big Double for Bowyer

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

With more than 60,000 already in the middle, Brandon Bowyer got his stack of 62,100 all in and was at risk against an opponent with {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts} for bottom two pair and the flush draw on the {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Spades} turn. Bowyer held {K-Spades}{Q-Spades} for top two pair and needed to hold to avoid elimination.

He did so thanks to the blank {6-Clubs} river on a table with big stacks Juha Helppi and Matt Waxman.
