Schwartz Gearing Up For Another Run
Level 16
: 3,000/6,000, 9,000 ante
Jake Schwartz made it all the way to second place before falling to Phil Hellmuth in this event a year ago, and he's now poised for a repeat performance after taking a chunk off former Poker Player's Championship winner Phil Hui.
Hui raised to 15,000 before the draw and Schwartz called on the button. Both players took one and Hui checked.
Schwartz took the lead with a bet of 30,500 and Hui quickly called. Schwartz rolled over 
and Hui flashed a nine before mucking.
"Caught a deuce, huh," Hui said following the hand.
"Yeah, I caught a deuce. Is that how little you think of me," Schwartz replied before clarifying he caught the four on the draw.
