Schwarmann Gets Paid on the River
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Action picked up on the river in a hand between Nick Schwarmann in the hijack and Edward Jordan in the big blind.
With about 300,000 in the pot and the board reading 3♣6♦A♣4♥2♥, Jordan led out with a bet of 100,000. Schwarmann raised to 475,000 and Jordan made the call. Schwarmann tabled A♥5♣ for a rivered straight, and Jordan mucked his hand.
The next hand, Schwarmann raised to 100,000 in middle position and was three-bet by Erik Seidel in the hijack to 225,000. Schwarmann thought for a moment before flashing the A♦ and giving up his hand.
