Schenider Runs Into Cheong's Pocket Rockets

We didn't catch the betting action, but we do know that Peter Schneider was all in preflop for around 325,000 with {A-Hearts}{K-Spades} and ran smack dab into the {A-Clubs}{A-Spades} of 2010 November Niner Joseph Cheong.

The {J-Hearts}{10-Spades}{8-Clubs} flop gave Schneider a gut-shot straight draw, but neither the {6-Diamonds} turn nor {J-Spades} river failed to complete it.
