Snatching Money From the Till

Jennifer Tilly raised the button preflop, and big blind Shawn Buchanan matched the bet to see a flop.

It was {10-Spades} {A-Hearts} {8-Hearts}, and Buchanan check-called a bet of 2,000. He did the same for 3,500 on the {6-Spades} turn, and the {9-Diamonds} on the river saw him check one last time. Tilly fired 5,000 at the pot, and Buchanan eventually made the call.

"Queen-high," Tilly said softly, not wanting to show it down. Buchanan flashed the {A-Diamonds}, and she mucked, and the dealer pushed the pot to Buchanan. Tilly asked to see the winning hand, and the dealer flipped up Buchanan's {A-Diamonds} {6-Clubs}, his two pair plenty good enough to take it down. He moves up over 50,000, while Tilly slides back under the 100,000-chip mark.
