Schultz Doubles through Pickering

Shamus

The table folded around to Thom Schultz in the small blind, who completed. Jamie Pickering then raised 16,000 from the big blind, and Schultz called.

The flop came {5-Clubs}{10-Spades}{3-Diamonds}. Pickering fired 50,000 into the middle, and Schultz went into the tank. After counting out his chips, and shooting a quick look in Pickering's direction, Schultz made the call.

Pickering {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Schultz {4-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{K-Hearts}

The turn brought the {8-Hearts} and the river the {2-Spades}. That river gave Schultz a straight, and he doubled up to approximately 260,000. Pickering fell back to 160,000.
