Ylon Schwartz Sent to the Rail

Ylon Schwartz got his chips in the middle with {K-Spades}{J-Spades} only to find himself drawing very thin against an opponent holding {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}.

When the case jack hit with a flop of {J-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Hearts}, Schwartz was looking for running kings or spades, neither of which came when the board finished {9-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}.
