Schindler Bluffs Away His Main Event

Brandon Bloom

Level 24 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

With roughly 600,000 in the pot on a completed board, Jake Schindler had 150,000 over the betting line in early position, and Fabian Schaefer Carreno raised to 675,000 in middle position. Schindler thought for a while before deciding to move all in for his 1,760,000 chips.

"I knew you were gonna do that," Carreno reacted. "Then I didn't think so cause you took so long."

Carreno continued to talk quietly as Schindler sat in silence directly to his right. Ultimately, Carreno put in the chips to signify a call. Schindler slammed down onto the felt, and his bluff attempt with the ace of diamonds was no good, as Carreno's claimed the pot with a straight.

Schindler, who won his first bracelet earlier this year and is also widely known in the poker world for having cheating allegations against him, was left standing with no chips as he joylessly awaited a payout slip before he made his way to the payout desk on Day 5 of the Main Event.
