Scoop-a-Loop for Chow

Stud-8

Michael Chow: (X-X) / {6-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{7-Clubs} / (X)
Carlos Mortensen: (X-X) / {9-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{2-Spades} / (X)
Brandon Adams: (X-X) / {9-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} / (X)

There was already nearly 200,000 in the middle when Carlos Mortensen bet out on sixth street. Brandon Adams raised him, and after playing the previous streets passively, Michael Chow tanked, then three-bet. Both his opponents were visibly surprised, but paid for one more card. It checked around on seventh, and Show turned over {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for aces and sevens. "One time," he said quietly as the other two squeezed their cards. Mortensen mucked, and Adams let out a slow breath before following suit.

Chow scooped the massive pot, moving from fairly short to 530,000. Mortensen fell to 270,000 and was forced to dip into the top tiers of his chip sculpture. And Brandon Adams is down to 200,000.
