Pocket Rockets Propel Tam to a Double
Level 4
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Jack Salter opened for 8,500 under the gun only to have Aidan Tam three-bet to 14,500 right behind. Action folded to Andrew Pantling on the button and he decided it was a good time to four-bet to 38,000. The blind both folded, as did Salter, and then Tam moved all in for 128,000. Pantling assessed his own stack and then opted to make the call, a decision he no doubt regretted.
Pantling:
Tam:
Pantling was dominated, and the flop provided little help. The turn gave Pantling a pair, but he needed another on the river to eliminate Tam. The dealer burned one last time and put out the harmless .
