Vedes Gives Some Up

We were a little late to the action, but a player at Tommy Vedes' table informed us that there had been a three-way flop of {5-Spades}{9-Clubs}{j-Diamonds} with the big blind checking to Vedes who bet before min-raising, getting a call from Vedes for a heads-up turn.

The turn was the {2-Hearts} and the big blind check-called again. While we didn't see the amounts of the bets, we do know there was about 27,000 in the pot following the action on the turn.

The river came down {4-Spades} and the big blind checked again, with Vedes betting 18,000. After thinking for a while the big blind finally made the call and showed {q-Clubs}{j-Hearts}, leading Vedes to muck.
