Schneider Off to the Races

Action folded to Tom Schneider on the button and he opted to raise to 7,600. Burt Grenell was in the small blind and moved all in for a total of 27,000.

Schneider contemplated making the call, cut out the chips, and tossed them in the pot. Grenell turned over {3-Spades}{3-Clubs} while Schneider revealed {Q-Clubs}{J-Clubs}. Grenell was racing for his tournament life as the flop came {7-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades}.

"Keep 'em small," Grenell encouraged the dealer, "No more clubs." Wouldn't you know it, the turn was a club, the {A-Clubs} to be exact. Suddenly Schneider was drawing to a flush with two over cards.

The dealer burned and put the {9-Diamonds} on the river. Grenell dodged a lot to double to around 60,000 while Schneider is still healthy sitting with about 200,000.
