Schwartz Finds a Quick Double With Aces

Level 7 : 250/500, 75 ante

A player in early position raised to 1,025, and a player in middle position called. Noah Schwartz was in the big blind and three-bet to 3,000, and the initial raiser moved all in for about 11,000. The middle-position player folded, and Schwartz turned over {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds} while calling instantly.

His opponent was the player at risk with {9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and needed one of two nines in the deck to improve against his aces.

The board ran out {7-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{5-Spades}, and Schwartz locked up the pot while sending his opponent to the rail.

As he stacked his chips, he had a quick word with David Williams, talking about how he got one-outed in the $25,000 Pot-Limit Omaha event when he held aces and was cracked by ace-queen. Williams shared a similar story, shook his head, and went back to his seat.
