Setback for Tam after Tangling with Pettersson
Level 5
: 200/400, 50 ante
Picking up the action on a flop of 
, Jan Pettersson checked and called a bet of David Tam for 2,050 before the 
appeared on the turn. Pettersson checked once more and Tam made it 3,600 to go, which the Aussie called.
The 
on the river completed a possible back door flush and Pettersson checked. Tam fired a third barrel for 3,000 and faced a check-raise to 8,600 by Pettersson almost immediately. A quick call followed and Pettersson showed the 
for the nut flush to scoop a decent pot.
While the hand played out, Tom Alner sat down in the one seat and will be joining the action shortly.
