Kicker Problems Leave a Sowers Taste

Mike Sowers raised to 155,000 from the button and got called by Fabian Quoss in the big blind.

Both players checked the flop of {5-Clubs}{K-Spades}{A-Diamonds} and the turn of {9-Diamonds}. When Quoss checked the {2-Hearts} on the river, Sowers bet 180,000 and Quoss called, turning over {K-Hearts}{Q-Hearts} and out-kicking Sowers' {K-Clubs}{7-Spades}
