Schindler on the Short Stack

Level 20 : 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Jake Schindler raised to 110,000 from the cutoff with {k-Hearts}{j-Clubs} and Ben Yu shipped all in for 530,000 in the small blind with {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. The action was back on Schindler who asked for a count before making the call.

Yu was in the lead heading to the flop but Schindler held two live cards. The flop of {6-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{2-Spades} was safe for Yu but the {k-Spades} on the turn gave Schindler the best hand. However, the {a-Clubs} on the river saved Yu from elimination and denied Schindler winning a pot.
