A player in the cutoff has a raise of 5,800 in front of him before John Fagg reraises to 13,000 on the button. Jake Schwartz then moves all in for 55,000 in the small blind and Fagg calls.

Schwartz finds himself crushed by Fagg’s kings as the flop comes Spade 2Diamond 10Diamond 2. The turn, though, is the Heart Q and Schwartz leaps in front with a set of queens.

The Spade 4 completes the board and Schwartz doubles up.

“Classic Jake Schwartz right there,” tablemate Anthony Zinno says.

“That’s Jake Schwartz from seven years ago,” Schwartz replies.

Jake Schwartz- 120,000 (150 bb)
Anthony Zinno- 80,000 (100 bb)
John Fagg- 25,000 (31 bb)
