Jake Schwartz was eliminated during Level 8, but these last six levels have gone exceedingly well for the pro from New York. He returned with a fresh starting stack shortly after his elimination, and he was already sitting with around 170,000 chips when this hand began.

Action folded around to the small blind, who moved all in for about 25,000 in front of Schwartz. “You want to sweat it together?” Schwartz asked from the big blind, leaning over to let the his opponent squeeze along with him. “Oh, that’s very bad,” Schwartz said as he peeled the first card. When he peeled the second, though, he said, “I have to call,” and he did just that.

Schwartz:
Small blind:

The flop gave the small blind the lead with a pair of sevens, but Schwartz turned the to retake the lead with a set of deuces. The small blind needed to find a diamond to stay alive, but the river sent him to the rail just before the end of Day 1E.

Jake Schwartz – 197,000 (82 bb)

As we near the end of the flights, we like to begin eyeballing stacks to track the end-of-day leaders. Ariel Williams was an obvious choice when we walked around during the break.

She ran her 20,000 starting stack over 200,000 before the final break and then picked up some more to push it up to 229,500 with a few more levels to run.
