Schwartz's Winning Ways
![[user198174]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
Justin Schwartz has climbed to be one of our larger stacks in the room as the day wears on. Schwartz just recently made the final table of Event #14 $1,500 No-Limit Hold'em Shootout, but had an early exit in 9th place. Today he looks to go further chasing the golden bracelet that eluded him two days ago.
Recently we saw him play a raised pot with a 
flop. Neither player wanted the bet and we had two checks. A 
on the turn though allowed Schwartz to bet out 6,500. A call was made and the 
landed on the river. It was here that Schwartz slowed down and checked, his opponent though bet out 12,200. Schwartz folded, but still hovers around 190,000.
