Plenty of Chips for McGowan

Kevin McGowan giving stack envy.
Kevin McGowan giving stack envy.

Kevin McGowan opened to 1,100 from early position to pick up the 450 in blinds.

The following hand he opened to 1,100 from under the gun, but this time was met with a 2,500 three-bet. McGowan called and then took the pot down after firing out 3,000 on the {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop.

Why are these hands so blog-worthy?

With these two consecutive pots, it takes McGowan to over the 140,000 chip-mark as he currently sits with 142,500 in chips.
