Nelson So Close to Round Two

Lee Nelson thought he was through to round two holding {J-Hearts}{9-Hearts} on a board of {9-Diamonds}{A-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} against the {A-Clubs}{5-Hearts} of Justin Schwartz. However the {5-Clubs} peeled off on the river and Schwartz survived with a bigger two pair.

A few hands later Nelson got some revenge, when all in with Q-8 against the pocket fours of Schwartz. The board ran out 3-J-T-9-7 to give Nelson a straight to regain control of the contest.

Schwartz was left to bemoan his bad luck saying "Why are we playing like this?!?"
