Schulze Extends Chip Lead With Cowboys
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Sebastian Schulze opened K♦K♣ from middle position and Mounir Tajiou called in the small blind holding A♠J♣. Seungmook Jung also called in the big blind with 9♣7♦.
They saw a flop of 6♣10♦J♠, which checked to Schulze. He threw out a bet of 270,000 with his overpair, and Tajiou called with top pair. Jung did have a gutshot, but didn't want to tangle and folded.
On the 4♠ turn, Tajiou check-called a bet of 960,000 to see the 5♠ hit the river. Again Tajiou checked, then Schulze unleashed a bet of 1,800,000. Tajou had 4,400,000 behind and needed a lot of time to think about it before he acted. Eventually, Tajiou did call and mucked when he saw the bad news.
Schulze's stack climbed to well over 15,000,000 after that hand.
