Alain Roy is Firing Blanks

The action folds around to Alain Roy who raises to 4,500 in midfield. Paul Tedeschi (who looks uncannily like David Vamplew) is seated next to him and he makes the call. Nobody else as much as utters a word and so the pair are heads-up to the flop.

Flop: [Ac] [Kc] [2h]

Roy makes a 5,100 c-bet and Tedeschi tanks for two minutes before calling.

Turn: [8d]

This time it is 11,100 from Roy and a much quicker call by Tedeschi.

River: [Qh]

Roy looks at Tedeschi’s stack and can see that he has around 40,000 left. This prompts Roy to move all-in and Tedeschi makes the call. Roy flashes [Js] [8s] for the bucket of air and Tedeschi shows [Ad] [Qs] for two-pair before enjoying a much needed gulp of oxygen.

Tedeschi ~ 125,000
Roy ~ 105,000
