Hand #83: Mike Sowers Doubles Through Blake Cahail

Hand #83  –  Blake Cahail raises from late position to 125,000, Mike Sowers calls from the button, and Chris Ferguson calls from the big blind. The flop comes [KhJd9h], Ferguson and Cahail both check, Sowers bets 250,000, Ferguson folds, and Cahail moves all in.

Sowers calls with a shorter stack, showing [KsQh] (pair of kings, gutshot straight draw). Cahail shows [Ah5h] for a heart flush draw, and he’ll need to improve to bust Sowers here. 

The turn is the [6s], the river is the [9c], and Mike Sowers wins the pot with a pair of kings to double up into the chip lead. 

Mike Sowers  –  3,225,000
Blake Cahail  –  1,750,000
