Hartmann Doubles on the Bubble
Level 16
Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
Matt Waxman had previously doubled through Tony Hartmann who then inquired if Waxman had indeed earned the full pot. The table chat went back and forth for several minutes as the money bubble was reached.
Ultimately, the previous decision stood and Hartmann was on a short stack. He defended out of the small blind against a cutoff raise by Matthew Schultz and both took one card each. They checked and took another card each for Hartmann to check-call. Hartmann then took one and Schultz patted.
The shove of Hartmann for 12,500 followed and Schultz called to get shown 
for a wheel as Hartmann doubled on the bubble.
