Schnierer Spikes the River
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Gerald Schnierer and Andrew Marks clashed in a hand preflop that saw all the chips go in the middle with Schnierer at risk.
Gerald Schnierer: 3♠3♦
Andrew Marks: K♦K♥
Marks had Schnierer in dire straits, and the flop did not bring any additional equity for Schnierer when it fanned out J♥4♥Q♠. The 9♣ turn offered no solace for Schnierer, but the 3♥ river flipped over, much to the amazement of the table that let out an audible reaction. As if a two outer was not a bad enough beat for Marks, another player claimed they folded a three, making it possibly the last three in the deck.
