Baird Sends Schaeffer Packing

Erick Torres
Erick Torres
Level 8 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

James Schaeffer shipped it for his final 11,000 from the hijack. Adam Baird went all-in on the button to isolate before the blinds folded to create a showdown between Schaeffer and Baird with Schaeffer at risk.

James Schaeffer: A♠K♦All in
Adam Baird: 8♣8♥

Schaeffer had a fighting chance to improve and double up, but the flop did not put out any offerings when it came 9♠2♦Q♠ to keep Baird in the lead.

The 5♣ turn, and the 5♥ river completed the board as Schaeffer was sent out of the tournament.
