Baker Knocks Out Dowdy

Level 16 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Action was picked up with around 40,000 in the pot and a flop of {9-Spades}{k-Spades}{10-Clubs} on the table. Royce Baker fired for 30,000 from early position. David Dowdy raised to 85,000.

After Baker spent a few minutes in the tank, the player to his left called the clock. Not too long after, Baker moved all in, and Dowdy made the snap call as the player at risk.

David Dowdy: {a-Spades}{5-Spades}
Royce Baker: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

Baker was ahead with his set, but Dowdy's nut flush draw gave him plenty of equity. Unfortunately for Dowdy, who previously this summer made the final table and finished runner up in Event #27: No-Limit Hold'em Shootout, the {a-Hearts} turn and {6-Hearts} river did not offer him enough help, and he was sent to the rail. Baker scooped the pot to add to his stack, which is now among the biggest in the room.
