Bowers Finds the Case Ace and Doubles
Joshua Adkins limped in from the small blind with Q♦7♥5♣4♥, and Elie Nakache checked his option in the big blind after looking down at Q♠10♦8♥4♠. The J♠J♣6♦ flop checked through to the K♦ turn, where Adkins check-folded to a bet of 160,000.
The following hand, Oshri Lahmani made it 560,000 from the cutoff with Q♣J♣10♠7♥ and folded out the rest of the table.
On the next deal, Adkins opened to 480,000 from the cutoff with Q♥J♦9♠2♥ and Jonathan Bowers defended his big blind with A♠A♥A♦10♣.
Bowers found the case ace on the A♣6♥3♦ flop to make top set and he check-called a bet of 400,000. The turn brought in the 5♥ turn, and Bowers check-called again, this time for 1,600,000.
Bowers, with 3,300,000 behind, checked for a third time and tank-called when Adkins put him all-in to collect the double up.
