"Nice Flop"

Jason Tam raised from under the gun, and it folded back around to chip leader Al Barbieri who called in the big blind.

The flop came {5-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}. Barbieri checked, Tam bet, Barbieri raised, and Tam called. The turn was the {Q-Spades}, and this time Barbieri led out with a bet. Tam called.

The river was the {Q-Hearts}. Barbieri bet again, and Tam called once more. Barbieri turned over {9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} for the straight, and Tam tabled his {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}.

"Nice flop," said Tam good-naturedly. He's at 340,000 now, while Barbieri is up over the 800,000-chip mark.
