Altman Takes Short Cut to Exit

Level 8 : 400/800, 75 ante

Thomas Finneran is up to 60,000 now after polishing off Robert Altman with a timely Ace-spike. The betting was all preflop - Finneran putting the shorter stack to the test with a re-raise which looked like a four-bet would not shift it into a fold. Indeed, when Altman moved in, he was immediately called, and probably fairly happy about it:

Altman: {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}
Finneran: {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

You know what comes next: the harmless {8-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} flop but then the {A-Diamonds} turn and {J-Clubs} river sending Altman to the rail. He displayed not an eyebrow twitch - simply placidly letting his friend know he was out before sauntering from the tournament arena like he'd just come in here for a rest anyhow.
