The Big Cheese Gets Quartered

[user140525]

Jim "Mr_BigQueso" Collopy and Ylon Schwartz really liked their hands preflop. They'd already capped the betting preflop when the called the floor to ask if they could continue betting since they were heads up in the pot. The floor said no, so the big cheese had to wait to get his last 10k in until after the {9-Clubs} {6-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} flop.

Showdown

Schwartz: {a-Hearts} {a-Diamonds} {q-Clubs} {2-Spades}
Collopy: {a-Clubs} {k-Spades} {k-Clubs} {2-Diamonds}

The turn was the {8-Clubs} and the river the {10-Hearts} , bringing no miracle for Collopy. Schwartz won the top half of the pot with aces, and they chopped the other half with nut lows. After being left with a quarter of his stack, Collopy is in trouble with just 16,000.
