"Very Unlucky Card"
Level 31
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Nick Schulman raised to 240,000 from early position with the A?4? and David Coleman called from the button with the A?J?. Jonathan Borenstein came along from the big blind with the J?8? and it was three-way action to the flop of K?2?2?, which checked around.
After the dealer burned and turned the J?, Borenstein checked despite pairing his jack, and Schulman, who had the worst hand, bet 300,000. Coleman called with the best hand, and Borenstein got out of the way.
The A? river was a cooler card for Schulman, who made aces and deuces with a king kicker.
“Very unlucky card,” Phil Hellmuth said in the commentary booth.
Schulman bet again but downsized to just 150,000. Coleman just called and won the 1.8 million pot.
