Alexey Popov Advances

Alexey Popov and Justin Schwartz had been waiting for a big hand to collide with, and after Schwartz moved his short stack into the middle, Popov looked down at {Q-Hearts}

{Q-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

and made an easy call. Schwartz flipped over {K-Spades}

{K-Spades}

{9-Clubs}

and would need some help.

However the board arrived {5-Spades}

{5-Spades}

{A-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{8-Diamonds}

{J-Hearts}

and Popov wins the match 2-1 to advance to tomorrow's quarter finals!
