Luke Schwartz - 22nd Place
Luke Schwartz - 22nd Place

As the dealer was pitching, Team PokerStars Pro Jason Mercier was taking a SnapChat video of short stack Luke Schwartz. Schwartz didn't realize until Mercier pulled his phone down, and the Brit began to grin.

"Are you f***ing serious?" he said to Mercier.

Schwartz, who was under the gun, received his second card and moved all in for 74,000. Paul Volpe re-shoved in middle position, and the other players folded.

Schwartz: {a-Spades}{8-Hearts}
Volpe: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

"I'd say good luck," Volpe told Schwartz. "But I'd be lying."

Volpe held as the board rolled out {q-Clubs}{2-Spades}{3-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}, and Schwartz was eliminated in 22nd place.

The action started with Dario Sammartino who raised under the gun plus one to 25,000 after which Team PokerStars Pro Victor Ramdin three-bet to 65,000 from his immediate left. Kevin Vandersmissen called from the button after which Team PokerStars Pro Johnny Lodden four-bet to 188,000 from the big blind.

Sammartino decided to fold after which Ramdin tank-called. Vandersmissen did some tanking of his own before making the call as well.

The flop brought out {5-Clubs}{J-Hearts}{A-Clubs} and Ramdin and Lodden checked to Vandersmissen who bet 140,000. Lodden moved all in right away and Ramdin folded.

"Wow, I don't think I can fold this," Vandersmissen said immediately as he leaned back in his chair. The Belgian pro eventually made the call creating a pot worth almost 1.7 million chips.

Vandersmissen: {A-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}
Lodden: {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}

The turn brought the {10-Spades} and the river the {2-Hearts} eliminating Vandersmissen in 23rd place. Vandersmissen takes home €30,000 while Lodden takes a massive chip lead!

The river brought the {K-Clubs} and this time the man from Belarus decided to check. Juanda fired out 102,000 and Firsau gave his hand up immediately.
