Lowrie Raises and Takes it

Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Action was on the turn as the board read K?6?8?A?. Zachary Lowrie raised the bet from Khaled Aljoma up to 7,000. Aljoma took a few moments before he called.
The river was the J?. Both players checked. Aljoma tabled the 9?7? which Lowrie had beat with the 9?8?.
"You raised with only a pair of eights?" said a tablemate with a smile, teasing Lowrie as he took the pot.
