It's All About Schemion

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

The latest batch of hands all have gone Ole Schemion's way, including a hand where the German scooped up a medium-sized pot from Dragos Trofimov. It was Schemion who raised to 215,000 first to act and Trofimov called on the button.

Schemion bet 465,000 on the {J-Clubs}{9-Spades}{4-Clubs} and received a call before both players checked the {2-Clubs} on the turn. On the {A-Hearts} river, "wizowizo" bet what appeared to be 955,000 and Trofimov waved the white flag.

Santo Doubles Through Trofimov

Level 29 : 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Ole Schemion raised to 215,000 from under the gun and was called by Dragos Trofimov on the button. Alexandre Santo shoved on the button for 1,680,000 in total. Schemion snap-folded while Trofimov insta-called.

Alexandre Santo: {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}
Dragos Trofimov: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

Santo and Trofimov shook hand to wish each other good luck while the boisterous Brazilian rail shouted for big cards to come.

The flop came {8-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{a-Hearts} for Santo to flop top pair.

"Hold!!!" the Brazilian rail shouted (or something along those lines in Brazilian Portuguese).

The turn brought them the {5-Clubs} which didn't change the situation and neither did the {5-Spades} on the river as Santo doubled up.
