Schmitz Triples, Then Busts

Level 19 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Michael Schmitz
Michael Schmitz

Down to less than two big blinds after doubling up Ole Schemion, Michael Schmitz three-bet jammed a stack of 18,000 from the button to see a flop against Wayne Heung in the big blind and Alexandre Vuilleumier, who had raised from under the gun.

"Triple up incoming!" Schmitz predicted with a laugh.

The flop of {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} checked through and the same action took place on the {10-Diamonds} turn. Heung then bet on the {5-Clubs} river to get a fold from Vuilleumier.

"I think I've got this one," Schmitz said proudly as he tabled {k-Hearts}{10-Spades} for a full house to win the pot against the {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} of Heung.

A few hands later, Schmitz open-jammed his newly tripled stack and his old foe Schemion called in the big blind.

Michael Schmitz: {a-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Ole Schemion: {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}

"I'm fine with you calling with that," Schmitz said before eating his words as the board landed {7-Spades}{4-Hearts}{9-Clubs} to give his opponent an open-ended straight draw.

"On the other hand..." retracted Schmitz.

The {j-Diamonds} on the turn gave Schemion the straight to have Schmitz drawing dead and he joked that he would "never play with you (Schemion) again" as the teasing {a-Diamonds} bricked off on the river.
