Bowker Briefly Not the Chip Leader
Kyle Bowker briefly slipped below the 6 million mark when he raised preflop and got a call from David Vamplew in the cutoff. Bowker check-called 240,000 on the flop before Vamplew checked behind him on the turn. Bowker checked a third time on the river and this time folded to Vamplew's 490,000 bet.
Bowker was at 5.95 million after that.
But his sojourn in sub-6-millionsville was short-lived, as two hands later he made it 130,000 under the gun and found a call from Per Ummer on the button. Both players checked the flop and Bowker checked the turn too. Ummer tried a 200,000 bet, but Bowker promptly check-raised him to a million, and Ummer gave it up.
Back up to 6.4 million.
