Schwartz Rebuilding
Level 24
: 15,000/30,000, 0 ante
Shortly after the hand that saw Justin Schwartz make a dramatic fold, he was back in the action looking to rebuild. From the small blind, he three-bet a 75,000 chip raise from John Shipley to 255,000. Shipley made the call and the flop came down 
. Without hesitation, Schwartz moved in the rest of his 270,000 chips and after some thought, Shipley folded.
Schwartz climbs back up to 775,000 and while Shipley is no doubt unhappy he didn't win the hand, he still controls the second largest stack in the room with 1.24 million.

board from Cory Wood. The river completed the board with the and Schwartz checked again. Wood bet 300,000 and Schwartz began to tank. He thougth for a long time before eventually standing up and saying, "Why me?!?!?" in agony. He then folded his hand and Wood won the pot.
