Matt Giannetti Doubles Up

Schwartz, flushed with confidence after knocking out two players in one go, raised preflop. A short-stacked Matt Giannetti pushed for another 300,000. "Wow!" said Schwartz, "I'm maybe behind here." He is, and he calls anyway.

Giannetti: {8-Diamonds} {8-Clubs}
Schwartz: {A-Spades} {7-Spades}

Board: {6-Hearts} {Q-Spades} {K-Spades} {9-Clubs} {3-Clubs}
