Doubting Tomas

Shamus

After a few hands of heads up, Jason Tam had Tomas Alenius down to about 420,000. Then Alenius took three small pots in a row. Next came a hand in which Tam raised from the small blind/button, and Alenius called.

The flop came {3-Spades}{6-Clubs}{K-Hearts}. Alenius checked, Tam bet, and Alenius called. The turn was the {8-Clubs}, and again Alenius check-called Tam.

The river was the {A-Diamonds}, and Alenius again checked in same fashion as he had on the previous streets. Tam touched his chips, but then looked at Alenius and decided to check behind.

Tam turned over {7-Spades}{6-Hearts}, but Alenius had {A-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} for the rivered pair of aces. Alenius has inched back up to 920,000 to Tam's almost two million.
