Lamb Losing Ground

A player in middle position made it 250 preflop and managed to get a caller in the player on his immediate left, Ben Lamb. No one else was willing to pay the toll to see a flop, so they were heads up.

The dealer then spread out a {3-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} flop and the middle position player bet 350 and Lamb quickly made the call. With the {A-Hearts} on the turn Lamb again called a bet from his opponent, this time for 650. The {q-Hearts} was not going to slow down Lamb's opponent who again bet, this time 1,100. Lamb made the call. Lamb's opponent then flipped over {A-}{4-} for a pair of aces, Lamb couldn't counter and mucked his cards.
