Event 15: 8th Place - Schoengold

$500 + $60 No Limit Hold'em (Re-Entry)

Gary Schoengold (Olney, MD)

$2,503

Gary Schoengold opened for 22k utg, then Bob Hwang raised to 55k from the hijack.

Back to Gary, who shoved.  Bob called.

Gary had the two black Jacks.  Bob had pocket Kings (no spade).

The flop came T 9 4 -- all spades -- and Gary picked up a flush draw.

Turn was an offsuit 8 and Gary added an open-ender to his draws.

River was an offsuit 9, however, and no help to Gary.  He finished in 8th place, earning $2,503. 

After fading all those outs, Bob chipped up to 630k and said "Maybe I'll stay here and not go back to Vegas [for the WSOP].  I never run this good out there".
