There is a three-way all-in situation at Table 34, with Jake Schindler (pictured) all in from the hijack for about 38,000, Steve Yea all in from the cutoff for 157,000, and Aaron Mermelstein in the big blind, covering both players with about 190,000 in his stack.
All three players turn over their cards:
Aaron Mermelstein:
Steve Yea:
Jake Schindler:
The board comes — Schindler pairs his three on the flop to pick up a couple of outs, but he improves no further. Yea’s pocket queens hold up to scoop the entire pot, eliminating Schindler and doubling thru Mermelstein.
Steve Yea – 352,500 (141 bb)
Aaron Mermelstein – 33,500 (13 bb)
Jake Schindler – Eliminated
