Level 18

Stud Hi-Lo

David Steicke: XxXx / A410Q / Xx
Yueqi Zhu: XxXx / 3826 / Xx
Luke Schwartz: XxXx / 6JJ6 / Xx

David Steicke was all in on fourth street when Yueqi Zhu raised, and Luke Schwartz called behind. Zhu then bet all the way on the rest of the board, which Schwartz reluctantly called down.

Zhu rolled over his 543 for the straight and low, while Steicke asked the dealer, "Is that a straight over there?" before he declared, "I have aces up" and showed his A109.

"Well done... just four-five, easy, eh? I shouldn't chase," Schwartz said in the table chat. He had initially mucked his cards, but the 873 were revealed by the dealer due to the all-in showdown.

Zhu scooped it all to reach seven figures while Steicke bowed out in 20th place for the min-cash.
