Barry Shulman Eliminated in 3rd Place ($1,350,000)

[user66118]

Hand #134 - Harrison Gimbel

Barry Shulman has the button. He moves all in, and Ty Reiman quickly folds. In the big blind, though, Harrison Gimbel checks his cards, frowns, and calls the 4.165-million-chip shove.

Showdown
Gimbel: {A-Hearts}

Shulman:

Shulman should be used to this sweat by now, and he sits statue-still while the dealer prepares to run the board. When he does, it's not very thrilling at all: {5-Hearts}

.

That is no help at all to Barry Shulman, and the table has finally managed to eliminate him. After holding strong for most of the day, Shulman has been knocked off in third place. He'll take home $1,350,000 for his efforts this week.
