Nelson So Close to Round Two

[user57954]

Lee Nelson thought he was through to round two holding {J-Hearts}

on a board of {9-Diamonds}

against the {A-Clubs}

of Justin Schwartz. However the {5-Clubs}

peeled off on the river and Schwartz survived with a bigger two pair.

A few hands later Nelson got some revenge, when all in with Q-8 against the pocket fours of Schwartz. The board ran out 3-J-T-9-7 to give Nelson a straight to regain control of the contest.

Schwartz was left to bemoan his bad luck saying "Why are we playing like this?!?"
