Level 4 : 200/400, 400 ante

Tom Schneider

Action was picked up as Tom Schneider, in the cutoff, called the jam from early/middle position. There was already 24,000 in the pot and the flop had come {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}. The two had nearly identical stacks, with Schneider the player at risk by less than 1,000.

Tom Schneider: {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The {4-Spades} changed nothing, but the {7-Hearts} gave the opponent the nut flush, but gave Schneider the 9 high straight flush, good enough to bust the nut flush, and collect the double up.
