Bommes on a Roll

That might be a metaphor from a totally different game, but after a quiet start to the day the youngster has picked up the pace and developed a big stack along with some confidence using it. Just now, having raised early to 10,000 and picked up new tablemate Daniel Nutt for the ride, Bommes got all the way to the river without any drama, and then faced a bet out of 15,000 from Nutt.

The board read {Q-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {2-Hearts} {8-Clubs}. Bommes thought for a while before calling, and was rewarded with that sort of wrist-flip players do when they don't want to show. Bommes tabled the {A-Hearts} {10-Spades} and Nutt, fingers caught in the cookie jar, mucked his hand. Bommes' balcony rail went wild.
