Schwartz Takes Some Back from Michael

Level 3 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

In a previous hand, David Schwartz and Rubens Michael went toe to toe, with Michael winning a significant pot with a full house.

They found themselves heads up once again a few hands after where Schwartz opened to 600 in hijack. He got three callers in Christopher Wolfe on the button, Alexander Brenneke in small and Michael in the big blind.

The flop came 10QQ. Michael fattened the pot with a 600 bet. Schwartz called, but the rest left the two to go heads-up.

Both players checked the 3 turn. On the river 9, Michael led out with a 1,300 bet. A few seconds of thought, and Schwartz pushed back with a 4,000 raise, sending Michael to the tank. Michael ultimately folded, conceding the pot to Schwartz.
