Alan Schein
Alan Schein’s game plan seems to be “play a lot of hands” and build up his stack. His first shot ended on the first hand but he’s leading since his return. We see Schein in a lot of pots to the flop and his stack has gone up and down.
The most recent saw him in a three-way pot with Stephen Chidwick and Adrian Mateos. Schein bet 8,000 on the board to get a fold from Chidwick and call from Mateos.
Schein bet another 15,000 after the river and Mateos took a minute to throw in a call. Schein tabled for rivered trip eights and Mateos mucked.
Schein took the hand but he’s still down overall since the last break while Mateos is up more than 30,000 despite this hit.
