Schneider Shoots Back Up

With about 40,000 in the middle and the board showing {2-Spades}{6-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, Tim Phan checked and Tom Schneider took a moment to ponder the situation. He pulled out a stack of ten orange (5000) chips, divided it into two, then riffled them for a while before finally pushing forward the bet of 50,000.

Phan then went into the tank. He only had about 55,000 behind. Finally he let it go.

Schneider is back up to 230,000 now.
