Jeremy Schwartz Eliminated

Sep 21, 2010

Christian Iacobellis raises from middle position to 29,000, Jeremy Schwartz reraises from the button to 160,000, Iacobellis quickly moves all in, and Schwartz calls with [8d8h]. Iacobellis shows [QcQd], and Schwartz will need to improve to stay alive.

The board comes [10h6c6s3sAs], and the pocket queens hold up for Iacobellis to win the pot and eliminate Jeremy Schwartz from the tournament.

Giuseppe Pantaleo, currently second on the leaderboard, reacts to the sixes on the flop with frustration, saying that he folded [6h5h]. He tells Pantaleo that if Schwartz had folded, he would have called to protect his big blind, and they likely would have gotten it all in on the flop. Iacobellis seemed completely disinterested in Pantaleo’s alternate reality as he stacked the pot.

Christian Iacobellis  –  905,000
Jeremy Schwartz  –  Eliminated
