Paint it Black

Although he lost around 10,000 since my last count, Luke Schwartz has managed to scoop that back, and then some, after a mammoth encounter just moments ago.

With the board reading {J-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}, both players checked, only for Schwartz's opponent to lead out with a bet of 6,000 on the {9-Diamonds} river.

Schwartz blew his cheeks out and shook his head slightly before announcing that he was all in for around 25,000. After a few minutes, his opponent made the call. Sadly for him, and his tournament life, his {K-?}{10-?} for the flopped straight was good, but not good enough against Schwartz's {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}.

Schwartz now on around 55,000.
