Tomlin Doubles Through a Shocked Bathmanathan

James Tomlin shoved to a raise from Ganesh Bathmanathan, and Bathmanathan gave it some thought. He flipped a coin. "If it's tails, I'm calling," he announced. It came down heads. "You know what, I'm calling anyway."

Tomlin: {6-Clubs} {6-Spades}
Bathmanathan: {A-Hearts} {J-Clubs}

Flop: {A-Spades} {A-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds}

Bathmanathan: "YESSS!!!"

Turn: {Q-Clubs}

Silence.

River: {6-Hearts}

More silence. Eventually, Bathmanathan: "Three aces! That's sick." It seems the poker gods don't like it when you celebrate too soon.

Tomlin's up to 60,000.
