Bad Fold?

Clint Schafer raised to 150,000 from early position and Nicholas Sliwinski called from the cutoff. The flop was {10-Hearts} {7-Hearts} {5-Spades}. Schafer bet 225,000 and Sliwinski called. The turn was the {3-Spades}. Schafer bet another 600,000, Sliwinski moved all in for 2.7 million and after a long think, Schafer folded.

Sliwinski showed {A-Hearts} {5-Hearts} -- a pair and a flush draw and Schafer slammed the table in anger. Sliwinski is now up to 4.2 million while Schafer was left with 1,030,000.
