Adam Schiffer Eliminated in 15th Place ($19,500)

Aug 24, 2010

Hoan Ly opens the pot for 30,000 from the cutoff, Adam Schiffer moves all in for 120,000 from the small blind, Tom Lee tanks for a while before he calls from the big blind, and Ly calls the raise. With one player all in, any additional betting will create a side pot.

Lee and Ly check to the river on a board of [Ac8h2cKhQc]. Schiffer has a chance to triple up as he turns over [Ah9c] for a pair of aces, but Lee shows [AsJs] for a pair of aces with a better kicker. Ly mucks, Lee wins the pot, and Adam Schiffer is eliminated in 15th place.

Schiffer had horrible luck today, as he had two premium hands (K-K and Q-Q) lose preflop all-in situations against A-Q.

Tom Lee – 925,000  (77 bb)
Hoan Ly – 405,000  (33 bb)
Adam Schiffer – Out in 15th Place ($19,500)
