Schleger Eliminated by Quad Aces

Shane Schleger reraised to 7,600 after Richie Smith made it 2,400 to go. Smith then went all in and had Schleger covered. Schleger called.

Schleger was in a terrible spot with pocket kings up against Smith's pocket aces.

The board ran out {A-Spades} {5-Spades} {3-Hearts} {A-Diamonds} {J-Diamonds}, giving Smith quads and a huge boost to his stack. He is now over 130,000.
