Sowers’ Full House Eliminates McClellen
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Kyle McClellen raised to 50,000 in early position and received calls from Mike Sowers on the button and the player in the small blind.
The flop showed A?J?6?, which drew checks from the small blind and McClellan. Sowers, though, bet and McClellan called after the small blind folded. The turn produced A? and fireworks.
McClellan led into Sowers for 120,000, and Sowers responded by moving all in. McClellan looked at the board, and then called.
Sowers: 6?6?
McClellan: A?K?
McClellen found his trip aces up against Sowers’ full house and needed help on the river. The 8?, though, gave Sowers the pot and eliminated McClellen.
