Robert Steinmetz
Robert Steinmetz

Action on the table folded to Robert Steinmetz who raised all in for 233,000 from the hijack and John Schroer called from the cutoff.

John Schroer: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Robert Steinmetz: {9-Spades}{9-Clubs}

It was a classic race with Steinmetz ahead with his pocket pair and nothing changed after the {5-Clubs}{8-Spades}{q-Diamonds} flop.

The board paired with the {8-Hearts} turn and Steinmetz was looking good to score the double until the {k-Spades} fell on the river, ending his tournament in 19th place for $4,994.
