A Double and Then Some for Schwartz

Bruno Fitoussi raised from middle position to 5,000. Dmitry Motorov called from the cutoff seat, Massimiliano Martinez called from the small blind and Noah Schwartz called from the big blind.

The four players took a flop of {9-Spades}{7-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and action checked around to Motorov. He bet 12,000 and Martinez folded. Schwartz check-raised all in for 59,100 and that forced out Fitoussi. Motorov called.

Motorov: {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}
Schwartz: {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

The turn was the {2-Spades} to pair the board and now Motorov had more outs to a better two pair than Schwartz if he could hit on the river. He also still had his flush draw.

The river landed with the {8-Diamonds} and missed Motorov, giving Schwartz the double up.
