Schulman Nearly Doubles Through Tsoukernik

Level 9 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

No-Limit Hold'em

On a board of {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{8-Spades}, Nick Schulman check-called 16,000 in a battle of blinds with Leon Tsoukernik. Schulman checked the {j-Diamonds} river and no sooner had he patted the felt than Tsoukernik announced a bet of 40,000.

Schulman leaned back with a sigh and counted out his remaining chips. He'd have about 9,000 back if he called and lost. He muttered something about making a move and tossed in the call.

"Good call," Tsoukernik said.

Schulman tabled {a-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} for top pair. Tsoukernik asked if he'd have called all in and Schulman affirmed he would have.
