Schwartz's Spot On

No-Limit Hold'em

Bill Chen raised under the gun to 8,500, and the action was folded to Luke Schwartz who was on the button. He put in a three-bet to 25,000, and both blinds released.

"Make it 60,000," Chen said after he had enquired how much Schwartz was playing.

"Your ace-king is good," Schwartz said, as he snap-folded his {A-Hearts}{Q-Spades} face up. Chen cracked a smile and showed his {A-Spades}{K-Hearts}.

"You would've like a four-bet there wouldn't you!" Schwartz snapped back at Chen who raked in the pot. Despite this loss Schwartz is still up a bunch since he lost that pot in Pot-Limit Omaha earlier to John Monnette.
