Schwartz Cracks Kings

Level 17 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Andrew Yim shoved from the cutoff only to see Jake Schwartz reshove on the button and, once the blinds had folded, the players' hands were turned on their backs.

Andrew Yim: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Jake Schwartz: {a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}

Board: {j-Spades}{a-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}

Yim was ahead preflop with pocket kings and had a good chance of doubling up until the flop came down ace-jack and Schwartz took the lead with two pair. The jack of hearts improved his hand to a full house and the river was the nine of hearts, which meant Yim was the next player to fall from the field.
