Schoenberg All But Out

Level 8 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Under the gun, Jon Swick limped into the pot, and both Erica Schoenberg and Joe Kushner called from the small and big blinds, respectively.

Three-handed to the flop, the dealer spread out {Q-Hearts} {10-Spades} {5-Spades}, and Schoenberg led out for 2,600. Kushner raised, and Schoenberg put him all in for the 18,000 he had left.

Showdown
Swick: {A-Spades} {J-Spades} {6-Hearts} {6-Diamonds} (straight and flush draws)
Schoenberg: {J-Hearts} {J-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} (pair of queens and straight draw)

The turn was just what Swick was looking for as the {3-Spades} left Schoenberg drawing dead to the {10-Clubs} river. When the chips were counted down, she was left with just 600.

Those 600 went into the next pot with {A-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} {2-Spades} against Carlos Mortensen's {6-Diamonds} {9-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {10-Clubs}. Mortensen flopped a set of tens, but Schoenberg turned Broadway to keep her in the game for now.
