flop, and Englishman Steve Jelinek, who raised from the button pre-flop, made an open-ended straight draw with {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{3-Hearts}

. Schuman check-called Jelinek's 400 bet and then check-raised to 2,200 when the turn came {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

. Jelinek just called despite hitting the nuts. The river was the {9-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

and Schuman bet 6,000, Jelinek went all-in for 11,000 and Schuman called after a couple of minutes in the tank, losing the pot to Jelinek, who is now up to 28,000. Schuman is still in okay shape with 9,000.
