Schulze's Turn to Wake Up With Aces
Level 21
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
According to tablemate Alexandru Lupuleac, he opened in the hijack before Sebastian Schulze three-bet on the button. Marius Kudzmanas four-bet in the big blind and Schulze called, while Lupuleac got out of the way.
Schulze and Kudzmanas went heads-up to the Q♣9♠2♦ flop where Kudzmanas bet 65,000. Schulze called and the 4♠ fell on the turn.
Kudzmanas then moved all in and Schulze snap-called for 320,000. Kudzmanas had A♠Q♥ for top pair, but Schulze showed A♥A♦.
The river was the 2♣ and Schulze earned a massive double up.
"How does it feel to see a four-bet when you have aces," Lupuleac asked Schulze.
"I was really hoping you had kings," Schulze replied as the table broke immediately following this hand.
