Schneider Cut in Half

A player in middle position open-shoved all in for his last 68,000. Action folded around to Tom Schneider in the small blind, who announced he was all in himself. The big blind folded and hands were revealed.

Schneider: {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Clubs}
Opponent: {K-Spades}{J-Clubs}

Schneider was poised for the knockout, however, the {2-Diamonds}{7-Spades}{9-Spades}{2-Spades}{4-Spades} board left Schneider's opponent with a king-high flush on the river and he doubled through.

The two-time gold bracelet winner is down to his last 53,000.
