Gusmao Rivers Quads to Crush Schumacher's Flopped Boat
A painful cooler took place at Table 10 that was recounted back to PokerNews.
Action kicked off with a raise from Pedro Gusmao as Johan Schumacher and Trong Engedal both called from the blinds.
Schumacher and Engedal checked on the flop of A♦5♦5♣ and Gusmao continued for 600. Only Schumacher called.
Schumacher checked again on the 4♦ turn and Gusmao sized up to 1,800. Schumacher check-raised to 6,500 and Gusmao called.
The 4♣ river completed the board and Schumacher moved all in for 19,500 as he was met with a snap call. Schumacher showed Ax5x for a flopped full house, but he was crushed by the rivered quads of Gusmao with 4♠4♥ to be left with crumbs.
Engedal asked Schumacher whether it was painful to recount the action of such a cooler. "Not even a little bit," replied Schumacher.
"We're dead on the inside," added Chance Kornuth.
