Pineda Sets Up Shulman for Double

Anthony Thompson

Level 2 : 100/200, 200 ante

Julian Pineda raised to 500 from early position only to have two-time WSOP bracelet winner Barry Shulman three-bet to 1,700 from the cutoff.

Action folded back around to Pineda who called and the dealer dropped a flop. Pineda check-jammed for 19,400 after Shulman continued for 5,000 and Shulman called.

Julian Pineda:
Barry Shulman:

Shulman flopped top pair but was way behind Pineda's set of fours and the turn left him drawing dead.

The dealer dropped the meaningless on the river and Pineda collected his double-up.
