Schubert Hits an Unnecessary Boat
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Melissa Schubert was in early position and facing a bet of 3,500 on a flop of 9♠6♥3♦. She called to see the 6♣ turn and checked over to her opponent again.
He fired out another 7,000 from middle position and Schubert again called. The river came the 10♦ and Schubert checked once more. Her opponent slowed down and checked this time, turning over K♥9♥ for two pair.
Schubert, though, had 10♣10♥ for the rivered full house. "I didn't need it," she said as she raked in the pot.
Benjamin Underwood, who has made five final tables at the WSOP since 2019, is also seated at this table.
