Level 18 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante

Justin Vaysman opened to 100,000 in the hijack and was called by Nick Schulman in the big blind.

The flop came 2Q6 and Schulman checked over to Vaysman, who bet out 75,000. Schulman then bumped it up to 200,000, before Vaysman three-bet all in for 650,000, which Schulman snap-called.

Justin Vaysman: KK
Nick Schulman: A8

Schulman flopped a flush draw and would need a spade or ace to knockout Vaysman and his pocket kings. The turn ended things quickly as the 9 hit, leaving Vaysman drawing dead, and was officially eliminated in fifth after the 4 hit the river.
