Schaal Fades Combo Draw for Stacks

Level 3 : 100/300, 0 ante
Austin Schaal
Austin Schaal

With 5,300 in the pot on a {q-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{3-Clubs} flop, Austin Schaal overbet for 6,000 from under the gun. Joe Locke, however, wanted to play for all of it, shoving his 23,900 into the middle.

Schaal calmly stared at the board for a moment before making the call.

Joe Locke: {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Austin Schaal: {k-Hearts}{k-Spades}

With Schaal holding two of Locke's outs to a straight, the {a-Spades} turn and {j-Spades} brought no salvation, and Schaal's two pair held for a near double-up.
