Give Me a Deuce!
Nick Schulman has just found a much needed double up at the hands of Michael Watson. After fourth street was checked, Schulman fired a bet on fifth street, and Watson raised. Schulman committed his last chips and Watson made the call. Their boards were as follows:
Schulman: ()
Watson: ()
Watson held the lead, and that didn't change when Watson picked up the and Schulman the on sixth street.
On the river Schulman squeezed his card and when it revealed "no sides", he knew what he needed to catch.
"Give me a deuce!" exclaimed Schulman...and, ding, he rolled over the to make two pair.
That left Watson needing to improve but he couldn't do it as he flipped the on the river. Schulman doubles to 31,000 with Watson down to 52,000.
