Gowen Takes Hit Late

Just before the end of play, Clonie Gowen got involved in a big hand against Diren Yildiz. With the board showing {K-Clubs}

and about 30,000 already in the pot, Gowen bet 7,000 and was called. The river brought the {4-Clubs}

. Gowen bet 5,000, Yildiz raised to 18,000, and Gowen called.

Yildiz showed {A-Hearts}

for fours full of kings, and Gowen mucked. She slipped down to 15,000 after that hand, while Yildiz catapulted to 140,000.
