Jeffrey Schwartz was up against it after doubling up Eric Wasylenko but he is back above the chip average after doubling up through Ara Abkarian.

Abkarian opened to 335,000 in the cutoff and Schwartz called from the small blind as did Sergei Nikiforov in the big blind. The J♣10♦7♦ checked to Abkarian and he bet 475,000. Schwartz shoved for 1,400,000 total and Nikiforov folded.

Abkarian called with K♦J♦ and was live to hit against Schwartz’s A♦A♣. The 8♣ turn and 2♥ river were both blanks and Schwartz’s higher pair held up.

Abkarian is down to 750,000 and in big trouble with the blinds about to go up.
