Shulman Behind, Ahead, Behind

[user66118]

A player in middle position came in with a raise to 18,000 from middle position, and Jeff Shulman was the lone caller from the big blind. Heads up then, the flop came down {Q-Spades}

{Q-Spades}

{Q-Hearts}

{10-Clubs}

. Shulman check-called a bet of 20,000, and the turn brought the {3-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

. He checked again, this time calling an additional 40,000. On the river, the {10-Diamonds}

{10-Diamonds}

drew one more check. This time though, Shulman's opponent checked behind.

Jeff turned over {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{3-Spades}

, having turned a full house. As he suspected though, his opponent's {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

had come back to make the better full house on the river, sending a chunk of chips his way. Shulman has slipped down to 320,000 after dropping that pot.
