Back and Forth

Level 25 : 35,000/70,000, 70,000 ante

Nick Schulman won a couple pots to reclaim the chip lead, but he just lost a couple to give it back to Matt Hyman. In fact, the counts are right where they were when Hyman spiked the two outer to double.

In a recent hand, there was 560,000 in the pot and a board reading {9-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{3-Spades}{j-Spades}{q-Clubs} when Hyman, who held the {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}, coyly checked his rivered straight and Schulman, who had the {a-Spades}{q-Hearts} in the hole, bet 450,000. Hyman opted to just call and took down the pot.
