"You're All in Trouble!"

Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante

The flop was {7-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{2-Spades}, and that spurred a flurry of action between three players. There was around 15,000 in the pot, and the action was checked to Nick Schwarmann, who bet 11,000 from the cutoff. The small blind raised all in for 44,400, and the third player stuck his remaining 11,300 into the pot, as well.

Schwarmann was left with a decision, and he started to speak what he was thinking: "There are some hands you could have that I beat. But, there are also some that I could be drawing to only a couple outs." Schwarmann called, and the latter part of his sentence was true.

The small blind tabled {5-Spades}{5-Clubs}, and Schwarmann held {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}. The third opponent showed {q-Diamonds}{7-Spades}.

Schwarmann needed to catch an ace, and in a blink of the eye, the dealer flipped the {a-Spades} on the turn. The {9-Diamonds} completed the board, and Schwarmann scooped the entire pot, eliminating both opponents.

"If I start sucking out, you're all in trouble!" Schwarmann announced to the table as he stacked the chips from the pot.
