Schroer Survives
Level 19
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Jonathan Schroer has ridden the short stack admirably here this week, but he just got himself in a spot of trouble. With 108,000 chips left, Schroer took his stand with , running his suited ace right into the of Leonard Cortellino.
Things would get better in a hurry for the school leader from North Carolina, though, as the flop pulled him into a big lead with two to come. The turn brought no change, and neither did the river, and Schroer has found his come-from-behind double up here in the eleventh hour.
Now it's Cortellino who needs the double as he's been crippled all the way down to just 46,000 lonely chips.
