Hand #49 - Shane Schleger Doubles Through Barry Cales

Hand #49 - Barry Cales has the button in seat 8, he raises to 85,000, and Schleger calls from the big blind. The flop comes {J-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}, Schleger checks, Cales bets 150,000, Schleger moves all in, and Cales quickly calls with {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}. Schleger shows {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds} for top pair, and he'll need to improve to stay alive.

The turn card is the {4-Spades}, and Schleger needs a queen or a jack on the river to survive.

The river card is the -- {Q-Hearts}! Schleger's fans in the crowd cheer as he wins the pot with two pair, queens and jacks, doubling up to approximately 1,060,000 in chips. Cales drops down to about 300,000.
