A Mystery & a Double Up

Mike Schwartz
Mike Schwartz
As I was loitering around table 15, the highly entertaining Mike Schwartz, who, incidentally, finished second in the $1,500 shootout event two days back, called me over while he was being dealt a hand.

"Do you have microphones over there?" he asked.

I had no idea what he was talking about, and wasn't given a chance to find out as our conversation came to a very abrupt end as he looked at his cards.

"I raise," he announced, throwing 600 of his 6,000 stack into the pot.

In what was a quick fire sequence of events, the big blind made it 3,000, Schwartz pushed all in, and his opponent called.

Whilst the big blind proudly turned over {Q-Hearts}{Q-Diamonds}, he was dismayed to see he was dominated by Schwartz's {K-Spades}{K-Hearts}, and duly requested...

"Big suck out please."

However, it didn't quite pan out that way, the {K-Clubs}{K-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{5-Clubs} sealing the deal before the third card had even hit the felt.

As a result, Schwartz doubles through to 13,000, but I was left wondering about those mysterious microphones and exactly what Schwartz was talking about. Maybe I'll find out later...
