Schindler Takes From McCaw

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

A player in middle position raised to 2,100 and Jake Schindler called from late position. The big blind, and big stack, David McCaw three-bet to 8,200 and the initial raiser folded but Schindler called to see a flop.

The flop came down {2-Spades}{5-Clubs}{J-Spades} and McCaw continued with a bet of 7,000 and Schindler called again.

The turn was the {Q-Hearts} and this time both players decided to check and see what the river card would be.

The {5-Hearts} came down as the river and McCaw checked to Schindler. Schindler decided to go big and fired out a bet of 28,000. After a short tank, McCaw called and saw Schindler open up {A-Spades}{Q-Diamonds}. McCaw lost with his {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} that he opened up in frustration.

Joe McKeehen got sent home on one of the other tables. He also lost with nines against ace-queen. The ace-queen managed to hit a flush to send the 2015 WSOP Main Event Champion home.
