Sixes in Reserve Help Hagens

Shamus
Shamus
Nathan Hagens opened with a pot-sized raise to 7,000 in middle position. Clonie Gowen reraised to 24,000 from the cutoff, and Hagens called with his remaining chips.

Hagens {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{6-Spades}{6-Hearts}
Gowen {A-Spades}{A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{4-Hearts}

As often happens in these aces-vs.-aces confrontations, the players' other two cards determine how the hand goes. The flop came {6-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{9-Diamonds}, giving Hagens a set of sixes, and Gowen couldn't come back.

Hagens bumps up to 80,000, while Gowen slips to 70,000.
