One thing is for sure - Barry Schmiess isn’t here at the Venentian to play it safe.

On an flop, Schmiess checked to Jeff Hobson who fired out 24,000 chips and Schmiess quickly made the call. After both players checked the turn, the antics got started.

With the coming on the river, Schmiess fired off 75,000 chips sending Hobson to the tank to make a decision for over a third of his chips. While Hobson was mulling over his decision, Schmiess told him “You call, you see it. You fold, I’ll show.”

Shortly after Schmiess made his offer, Hobson decided to release his hand and Schmiess showed for busted flush and straight draws raking in a 167,000 chip pot.

Schmiess moved up to 268,000 chips (89 bb) continuing his Day 1a roller coaster ride.
