Schulman Sent Out in Classic Fashion

Level 14 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
USPO

Zach Bruch raised from the hijack and was called by Matthew Wantman in the cutoff. Paul Roy on the button then three-bet to 115,000. It folded to Nick Schulman in the big blind, and he four-bet all in for 365,000. Bruch and Wantman folded, and once Roy confirmed the count, he made the call to put Schulman at risk.

Nick Schulman: QQ All in
Paul Roy: AK

It was a classic flip for Schulman's tournament life, but he was unable to hold as the board ran out 6A102A to give Roy trips, and knockout Schulman.
