Schulman Surges Ahead
Once the draw was complete, Schulman led out for 260,000. Wahlbeck rubbed his forehead as he double-checked the card he received on the draw. He glanced up at Schulman briefly while absent-mindedly riffling his chips and trying to discern the correct action. After a minute he called. Showdown!
Schulman: 9-7-5-4-3
Wahlbeck: muck
It's a huge setback for Wahlbeck, knocking back almost half of his stack.
Ship it to Finland
Schulman's Q-T-8-6-4 fell to Wahlbeck's T-7-6-4-3 and the Finn dragged the pot.
Small Pots
"Just a reminder, no flash photography please," announced TD Brooks Turk. It's the first admonition against flash photography we've heard this year, a nice change from last year (when the announcement was made several times a day).
After the draw both players checked. Schulman opened J-8-5-4-2 to take down the pot.
