Schulman Takes a Small One Off Hunichen

Level 10 : 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Martin Zamani limped in from the cutoff and Chris Hunichen called in the small blind. Nick Schulman was in the big blind and checked his option.

The flop was {q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} and all three players checked to see the {7-Diamonds} on the turn. There, Hunichen led for 11,000. Schulman raised to 36,000. Zamani folded but Hunichen called.

The river was the {7-Spades} and both players checked. Hunichen showed a pair of nines, but Schulman was holding {q-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for a pair of queens and he would take the pot.
