Gulas Triple-Barrels
Level 19
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Yannick Schumacher opened to 40,000 from middle position, and received a call from Josef Gulas in the next seat.
On the 8♣7♠3♣ flop, Schumacher check-called a bet of 65,000 from Gulas.
The same pattern followed on the 7♥ turn, this time in respect of a bet of 75,000 from Gulas.
The K♥ river completed the board, and Schumacher checked for a third time. Gulas jammed with the covering stack, and Schumacher, who had 240,000 behind, immediately put his head to his hands as he studied the board, looking pained.
He proceeded to burn through all his remaining four time banks contemplating the decision, and with ten seconds left before his hand was declared dead, folded.
