Owen Blasts Flop

Livello 33 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

The pot had 2,400,000 in it on the flop as it came 8♠5♣K♣. From the cutoff, Adam Owen bet over three times the pot as he put out 8,000,000. Clement Richez was in the big blind and went into the tank as the bet was for about half of his stack.

Richez thought for a long time, at least three to four minutes while he sat studying the situation. Eventually he folded.

"You thought those were blues?" both David Uvaydov and Alec Torelli asked Owen after the hand (referencing the blue 100,000 chips vs the 500,000 pink ones that Owen had bet with).

Owen did not reply to the question definitively as he gathered the pot to add to his big chip lead.

Giocatore	Chip	Avanzamento
Adam Owen	38,000,000 4,500,000	4,500,000
Clement Richez	16,500,000 -1,825,000	-1,825,000

David Brehme raised from a middle position to 3,000,000 and got a call from Adam Owen in the big blind.

The players saw a 3♥3♣9♣ flop and Owen checked. Brehme moved all in and Owen snap called.

Adam Owen: 9♦9♠

Brehme had a flush draw on the flop, but Owen had flopped the boat.

Brehme was looking to hit running aces to save him from elimination, but the 8♥ turn sealed his fate and he stood from the table as the dealer placed the 10♥ river, completing the board.
