McGowan Dodges Bullets

Joe McGowan, last seen ordering an arsenic cocktail following a hand in which he lost to a one-outer, has apparently kept his wits intact.

Just now McGowan was involved in another hand in which he raised to 3,000 preflop, was reraised to 13,000 and called. The flop came {5-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}. McGowan checked, and his opponent bet 25,000. McGowan thought a moment, then folded his pocket queens face up.

His opponent showed aces.
