Jake Schindler

Jake Schindler defeated 2021 U.S. Poker Champion David Peters in heads-up play on Sunday evening to win the PokerGO Cup Event #5: $25,000 No-Limit Hold'em at the PokerGO Studio at the ARIA Resort & Casino for $324,000.

Schindler entered the six-player official final table with the chip lead and never looked back while eliminating four of his opponents en route to victory.

"I pretty much just card racked," Schindler said to PokerGO after the win. "I didn��t have many decisions. Everything went well."

The victory was Schindler's second on the PokerGO Tour. Back in May, Schindler won the Aria High Roller 18: $25,000 No Limit Hold'em for $310,500.

��I��m just competitive, so it��s a good outlet for that,�� Schindler shared with PokerGO when asked about what drives him to compete at the game��s highest levels. ��It��s the only outlet I really have. I like it. I like competing.��

Final Table Action

Schindler kicked off the final table as the table captain, a status he never gave up throughout the evening.

GGPoker Ambassador Daniel Negreanu was the first casualty at the final table. He jammed 14 big blinds from the small blind with queen-seven suited and was called by Schindler with a dominating king-queen. "Kid Poker" had to settle for the sixth-place prize of $45,000 after the board ran dry.

Sean Winter (fifth - $72,000) was the only player not eliminated by Schindler. He was down to less than a big blind and went from being on fumes to out of gas after his seven-five was no good against the nine-deuce suited held by David Peters.

Schindler resumed his role as the table terminator after winning a flip with queen-jack against sevens to eliminate Stephen Chidwick in fourth place for $99,000.

David Coleman, who was at his third final table of the 2021 PokerGO Cup, was the next to go in third place for $144,000. Schindler jammed with nine-six from the small blind and Coleman called with ace-three. A nine paired up Schindler on the flop and Coleman was drawing dead after Schindler further improved to a flush on the turn.

Schindler Wins Another Race to Oust Peters in Heads-Up Play

Schindler began heads-up play against Peters with a 3:1 chip advantage before extending it slightly to a 4:1 advantage when the final hand took place.

Schindler limped the button with Q?J? before Peters jammed for 19 big blinds with 6?6?.

"Alright," said Schindler while pushing his chips forward for a call.

Schindler quickly pulled ahead after he paired his queen on the 2?8?Q? flop. Neither the 5? turn nor the A? river were able to improve Peters to a set and he was eliminated in second place for a healthy runner-up prize of $216,000.

The high stakes poker action continues at the PokerGO Studio at the ARIA Resort and Casino on Sunday with 36 entries battling it out on the opening day in the PokerGO Cup: Event #6: $25,000 No-Limit Hold'em for a share of the $900,000 prize pool.

John Riordan went on a spectacular run to close out the day by eliminating three high-profile opponents just before the money bubble broke to advance to the final table with a commanding final table chip leading stack of 1,700,000. Riordan ended the quests of Ali Imsirovic to get his third PokerGO Cup win, Alex Foxen his second PokerGO Cup win, and David Coleman his first win.

The final table will be a deep-stacked affair with players starting with an average of 50 big blinds. Riordan will kick off the action with more than double the stacks of his nearest competitors Thomas Winters (765,000), Anuj Agarwal (740,000), and Cary Katz (690,000), while partypoker Ambassador Jason Koon (385,000) and Steve Zolotow (220,000) will aim to spin up their shorter stacks.
