From the button, Mark Schmid raised to 200,000 and Justin Cohen called.
The flop was and Cohen led out for 500,000. Schmid thought for a bit and slid in the chips. The turn was the and Cohen announced a bet of 900,000. Once again, Schmid made the call.
The river was the and Cohen fired a final bet of 1.5 million. Schmid thought for a long time before finally deciding to call. Cohen sat back up when he heard this, leaned over the table and flung down for two pair. This caused Schmid to flinch in anger and muck his cards.
This pot creates a large shift in momentum as well as the chip lead. Schmid is left with just what he started heads up play with, 2.4 million. Once again, Cohen has a 3 to 1 chip lead with an eye on that bracelet.
