Nine-Eight No Good for Owen
Level 4
: Blinds 200/400, 600 ante
Adam Owen opened to 1,400 from under the gun and was called by Allen Kessler in the cutoff. A player on the button then three-bet to 5,200, receiving a call from Owen and a fold from Kessler.
Both players took one card with Owen following that up with a bet of 8,000. His opponent thought for some time before calling. Owen tabled 9x8x6x4x2x but came up short against the 9x6x4x3x2x of his opponent to send the British pro's stack sliding back down to a little under starting.
