Making Hedway
By the time we arrived Eames was already short-stacked, and was contemplating calling a 2,500 bet from Peter Hedlund on the river of a board. "You think I have a niner?" Hedlund was saying. "You could always go all in."
Smiling vaguely and doing his best to ignore Hedlund's good-natured chattering, Eames eventually flat-called, but was disappointed to see Hedlund turn over pocket threes for a full house. Eames flashed a third nine. "Jesus, you had a niner?" said Hedlund. "I should have bet more."
Eames is down to just 4,000, but at least he is enjoying what looks to be a very thorough massage.
