Sinishtaj Bet Seems Sinister to McKeehen

Level 30 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Following an Ido Ashkenazi button fold, Joseph McKeehen raised to 140,000 from the small blind and Tony Sinishtaj called from the big blind.

The flop came {A-Spades}{8-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and McKeehen continued for 130,000. Sinishtaj called. The turn then brought the {5-Diamonds}, and this time McKeehen checked. Sinishtaj fired 225,000 into the opening, and McKeehen called.

The river was the {Q-Spades}. McKeehen checked once more, and when Sinishtaj bet 475,000 rather quickly, McKeehen thought for a short while before folding, showing the {A-Clubs} as he did.

Afterwards Ashkenazi asked McKeehen what card he'd shown, and he noted it was ace, adding that he thought Sinishtaj had a better one. Meanwhile Sinishtaj wordlessly collected the chips.
