Schumacher Wins Race Against Wolter
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Johan Schumacher began the action with a raise to 125,000 from middle position and was called by Murly Manokharan on the button.
Jonathan Wolter wanted to play a bigger pot and raised to 475,000 from the small blind. Schumacher responded with a jam, while Manokharan folded. Wolter paused just a moment to take in the situation before he called to be at risk with his 2,200,000 stack.
Jonathan Wolter: J♥J♣
Johan Schumacher: A♠K♦
Wolter held the edge with the made pair to start, but the flop was a disaster from his perspective as it came A♣6♦6♣ to propel Schumacher into the lead.
The 3♥ turn and the 9♠ did not offer any solace for Wolter as he was eliminated.
