Schwartz Saves Some With a Chop

Ylon Schwartz was in the small blind and raised to 2,300. The player in the big blind made it 6,200 to go and Schwartz made the call.

The flop came down {10-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{J-Spades} and Schwartz went all in. His opponent, with about 25,000, called all in and showed {10-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, leading Schwartz's {9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}. The {5-Spades} river changed nothing, but the {Q-Hearts} hit the river, chopping the pot as both held queen-high straights.

Schwartz has about 78,000 at the moment.
