Schultz Hits on River to Survive and Double Up
Leo Soma was the first to act. He moved all in. He received a call from Thomas Schultz, who had 4,250,000 behind.
"You're gonna win," Schultz told Soma matter of factly. The two fist bumped as they had previously when Schultz had gone all in against Soma.

The arrived on the river, giving Schultz a pair of aces, and saving his tournament life, doubling up in the process.
"Told you this was fun" Schultz quipped after a moment, once the excitement and noise from the rail had quieted.
