Rubie Making Things Tough For Schaaf

Brendon Rubie opened to 25,000 in the cutoff. He was called by Greg Merson on the button and James Schaaf in the big blind.

The flop came down {A-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{7-Spades} and action was checked to Merson. He bet 32,000, both of his opponents called, and the {Q-Spades} hit the turn. Schaaf checked to Rubie who bet 67,000. Merson folded, but Schaaf popped it 225,000. Rubie mulled it over for about 30 seconds before re-raising to 467,000. Schaaf folded his hand pretty quickly, giving the pot to Rubie.
