Andor Schiller Avoids the Ace

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

Andor Schiller had all of his chips in the middle against Bob Buckenmayer preflop. Schiller started the hand with 188,000, which barely covered the 181,500-chip stack of his opponent. Schiller was ahead with {k-Hearts}{k-Diamonds} against Buckenmayer's {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}.

The board ran out {j-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{3-Spades}{q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}, and Schiller was able to avoid any possible disaster.
