Carolan Triples Up; Breyfogle Caught

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante
Mike "Schneids" Schneider took a hit when he couldn't improve with a pair and the nut flush draw.
Mike "Schneids" Schneider took a hit when he couldn't improve with a pair and the nut flush draw.

Small blind Mike Schneider bet 1,750 on a board of {5-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}, and a player in middle position called before Scott Carolan jammed for 7,200 in the hijack. Schneider called, as did the middle-position player. The all-in player prematurely flipped his cards over, and the {a-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} was exposed before he tried covering them back up.

On the {4-Diamonds} river, Schneider and his active opponent checked.

"I can't beat aces and fours," Schneider said, mucking his hand. The middle-position player was in the same boat, but since it was an all-in pot, the two hands were exposed before being mucked: {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts} for Schneider and {6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} for a weaker two pair for the middle-position player.

At another table, Todd Breyfogle fired 4,400 on the end on a board of {8-Spades}{k-Spades}{10-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}. Babe O'Gorman in the small blind called, while a third player folded.

"Nine," Breyfogle said, knowing he was beat.

O'Gorman showed {a-Spades}{6-Spades} for a whiffed flush draw turned backdoor straight.
