Boeken Clubs Another

Shamus

Jason Tam and Noah Boeken just told us about a hand in which they were recently butting heads. Here's the story.

Tam had raised from the cutoff, Boeken three-bet from the button, the big blind came along, and Tam called as well. The flop came A-Q-6 with two clubs. It checked to Boeken who bet, the BB folded, Tam check-raised, and Boeken called.

The turn was a blank (i.e., not a club), and Boeken called Tam's bet. The river was the {3-Clubs}

. Tam bet, Boeken raised, and Tam made the crying call.

As had happened on that bubble hand earlier, Boeken had rivered the club flush -- he had {K-Clubs}

. When Tam said something about a bad beat, Boeken replied "That sort of thing happens to me all the time online."

Boeken has now pushed up beyond the 150,000-chip mark, while Tam still has 42,000. Tam is also still in good spirits, and wanted to say hello and thanks to his wife who he says let him play in the WSOP on the weekend.
