BATB Event #14 ($1,500 NLH Championship): Jake Schwartz Doubles Through Uri Kadosh

2018 Battles At The Beach
Event #14 | $1,500 NLH Championship ($500,000 GTD)

Level 19 (Blinds 5,000/10,000/1,000) | Structure
Total Entries: 433
Players Remaining: 26

Jake Schwartz (New York, NY) now finds himself with over 900,000, after scoring a big double-up against defending champion Uri Kadosh.

Uri Kadosh's title defense hopes just took a big hit, as he watched a good portion of his stack get pushed the way of Jake Schwartz.  On a Q♠ 3 2 flop, Jake would call a check-raise from Kadosh, with the two watching as the 9♣ fell on the turn.  The chips then got in, with the two vying for a pot worth over 800,000:

Schwartz: Q 9 (top-two with flush draw)
Kadosh: 3♠ 3♣ (flopped middle set)

River: Q♣

Schwartz was able to find one of his thirteen outs on the river, giving him a timely double, which propels him to the top of the leaderboard.

Jake Schwartz - 910,000 (91bb)
Uri Kadosh - 290,00 (29bb)

It's bad news for Chad Eveslage...as Jake, Sam Panzica, and Joshua Kay still remain in the field...all with above average stacks.
