Schwartz Can't Make the Call

Steven Schwartz raised to 50,000 from the cutoff and David Posey called from the big blind. The flop came down {9-Clubs} {8-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} and Posey checked. Schwartz fired 70,000 and then Posey moved all in for 123,000 total, 53,000 more. Schwartz went into the tank for about a minute and then began talking to himself.

"Why do I do this to myself?"

"Do you have a flush draw?"

"I don't like tournaments anymore."

"How can I throw this away with all that money out there?"

After a few minutes in the tank, Schwartz finally let his hand go.
