Johan Schumacher raises the button and Ping Lin defends the big blind, then check-calls a bet on the Diamond 10Spade 4Club 3 flop. Following the Spade K turn, Lin checks and Schumacher bets 30,000.

Lin tanks before check-raising to 75,000 and the call by Schumacher leads to the Heart 6 on the river. A reluctant shove by Lin for around 140,000 is instantly called and Schumacher shows Spade 7Spade 5 for the nut straight, beating the Diamond KSpade 10 of Lin.

“That wasn’t nice” another player at the table remarks. “He should have check-raised the flop and shoved the turn,” Schumacher replies.

Johan Schumacher – 600,000 (150 bb)
