Jake Abdalla

Pot-Limit Omaha

Nick Schulman was on the button, tangling with small blind Jake Abdalla. They were on the {K-Spades}{A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{3-Hearts} board where Abdalla check-called a bet of 20,000.

The {5-Spades} fell on the river, and Abdalla checked again. Schulman took his time to figure out his preferred sizing and then slid 68,000 towards the middle.

Abdalla seemed to have a marginal decision, but he eventually made the right one, at least in that particular situation. He called.

Schulman rolled over his {A-}{K-}{4-}{4-} for top two pair but he was behind Abdalla's nine-high flush with {A-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{5-Hearts}.
