Schulman Squares Off Against the Unabomber

Action folded to Phil "Unabomber" Laak on the button and he raised to 25,000, which Nick Schulman called from the small blind. The chip leader then lead out for 36,000 on the {10-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} flop, which Laak called in position. Both players checked the {8-Spades} turn, leading to the {3-Hearts} river.

Again Schulman checked, but this time Laak opted to bet 55,000. Schulman thought for a solid two minutes before tossing his cards to the muck.
