Schnur Gets There

Richard Hayes

Level 29 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

Manuel Schnur opened to 125,000 from under the gun with K♣Q♥, and Lulei Hu defended 4♦4♣ in the big blind.

On the 8♦3♥2♦ flop, Hu check-called versus a bet of 150,000 from Schnur.

The same pattern followed on the 3♣ turn, this time in respect of a bet of 350,000 from Schnur.

The K♥ river completed the board, and Schnur triple-barreled with a bet of 475,000 when Hu checked.

Hu called, and was shown the bad news
