Barnett Wins Big Flip vs Schmidt

Level 26 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
James Barnett
James Barnett

Bobby Schmidt raised to 125,000 from the cutoff. James Barnett three-bet to 325,000 from the button. It folded back to Schmidt who four-bet jammed all in. Barnett looked around and shifted in his seat for several moments before spiking the chips in the middle for the call.

It was a huge coin flip as Schmidt had the bigger stack and the slight lead with the {8-Spades}{8-Clubs} while Barnett had the {a-Clubs}{q-Clubs}.

The flop connected with Barnett though as it came the {5-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}. The turn was the {10-Spades} and the river came the {j-Clubs} to solidify the massive double for Barnett and leave Schmidt short.
