Shulman Saved By The River

Level 4 : 150/300, 0 ante

Down to about 3,600, Barry Shulman was all in with {A-Diamonds}{5-Spades} against an opponent's {9-Hearts}{8-Hearts}. It looked bleak at first when the flop came down {Q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}, followed by the {K-Hearts} turn. However, the {A-Clubs} hit the river, saving Shulman and giving him a stack of about 8,000 to work with.
