Sowers Scoops Another One

Mike Sowers can do no wrong lately, it seems.

In a recent hand, Sowers opened for 1,800 from the hi-jack and was called by the cutoff, button and big blind.

The flop came {Q-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{3-Hearts} and action checked around to the player in the cutoff, who bet 2,600. The button and big blind folded, but Sowers made the call.

The turn came the {4-Clubs} and Sowers checked again, prompting a 6,000 bet from his opponent. Sowers flatted.

Both players checked the {9-Clubs} river and Sowers tabled {Q-Hearts}{8-Hearts}, which was good as his opponent mucked.

Sowers is up to 220,000.
