Schwartz Spikes an Ace to Double

Level 7 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

On a flop of {q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} there was about 9,000 in the middle already and the small blind bet out 3,000 the player next to act called and Evan Schwartz raised to 15,000. The action was back to the small blind who announced all-in for 54,200, the player in the middle folded and Schwartz called off his stack.

Evan Schwartz: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Small blind: {q-Spades}{8-Spades}

Schwartz' pocket aces were in trouble on the flop as his opponent flopped two pair, however, the {a-Spades} landed on the turn giving him a set of aces and the board completed with the {7-Spades} on the river to give him a double up.
