Cahail Turns Up the Pressure on Sowers

[user75032]

Mike Sowers, the chip leader of the tournament, raised to 75,000 preflop. He was called in position by the player on his left, Blake Cahail. They were the only players for a flop of {8-Diamonds}

. Sowers bet 110,000 on the flop, but Cahail was not deterred. He raised to 310,000, a bet that was big enough to fold Sowers.

Sowers is still the leader with 2.235 million chips. Cahail now has 1.45 million.
