Tam Taking Over

Jason Tam
Jason Tam
Jason Tam is on a brief rush here after the dinner break, and with the blinds and limits this high, things can change rapidly in just a couple of hands.

After taking a couple of hands off of each of his opponents, a hand came up where Tomas Alenius raised his button, and Tam called from the big blind. The flop came {3-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. Tam checked, Alenius bet, Tam check-raised, and Alenius called. The turn was the {6-Clubs}, and once again Tam checked, Alenius bet, Tam check-raised and Alenius called.

The river was the {K-Spades} and both checked. Tam showed {10-Hearts}{3-Hearts} for the flopped two pair, and Alenius {A-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}. Tam is way up over 1.8 million now, Alenius down to 720,000, and Barbieri down to 290,000.
