Lowery Gets Out of the Basement

Level 20 : 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante

Picking up the action on the turn, we saw the dealer put the fourth card down on the {Q-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} board, and Eric Yilmaz knocked the table. Daniel Lowery took his cue to make a bet of 30,000, but Yilmaz check-raised to 95,000 total. Lowery tanked and called, leaving himself 72,000 behind.

We didn't hear how it happened, but one way or another, that remainder went into the pot behind the {5-Clubs} river. When it was time for showdown, Lowery's {10-Clubs} {J-Clubs} drew a frustrated reaction from Yilmaz. That's most of his stack flushed away, leaving him with about 160,000.

For Lowery, it's a much needed double to push his stack back up around 380,000.
