Schwartz Loses a Flip vs Katz

Level 12 : 12,000/24,000, 24,000 ante

Noah Schwartz

After arriving at the table, Noah Schwartz was all in for 359,000 from the big blind and Cary Katz tossed in a single chip to signify a call from the small blind. The cards were on their backs and it was a coin flip with Schwart's tournament life on the line.

Cary Katz: {a-Spades}{j-Spades}
Noah Schwartz: {9-Spades}{9-Hearts}

The flop came {q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} and Schwartz dodged the initial three cards to remain in the lead. The {k-Diamonds} on the turn gave Katz a straight draw and the {a-Diamonds} on the river was just what he was looking for. Katz hit an ace from space to win the pot and send Schwartz to the rail.
