to 6,000. Ian Frazer called from the big blind with the {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Hearts}

.

The flop came down {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{Q-Clubs}

{8-Spades}

and Frazer improved to a pair of aces. He checked and Schwartz stayed on the gas pedal, betting 10,000. Frazer called.

The turn was the {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

and Frazer checked again. Schwartz fired another bet with just king high for 24,000. Frazer made the call.

The river was the {9-Spades}

{9-Spades}

and Frazer checked once more. After some deliberating, Schwartz fired 52,000. Frazer went into the tank holding the best hand. He took his time and then decided that he must be beat, folding his pair of aces. Schwartz didn't show the bluff and improved back over his starting stack.
