Schmidt Silenced

Level 20 : 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Samantha Cohen entered the pot with a raise to 26,000 only to have Daniel Haglund three-bet to 60,000 from a few seats over. With the action on Brian Schmidt, he moved all in for 79,000 to force a fold from Cohen and a call from Haglund.

Schmidt: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}
Haglund: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades}

With Schmidt needing to spike to stay alive, the {5-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts} board would see him hit the rail as Haglund climbs to 450,000 in chips.
