Nick Schulman
Nick Schulman

Nick Schulman opened to 8,000 from the cutoff and Chris Hunichen called in the small blind. Cary Katz called in the big blind.

The flop was {j-Clubs}{7-Spades}{5-Clubs} and Hunichen checked. Katz moved all in for 8,000 and Schulman called. Hunichen thought for a bit then raised to 30,000. Schulman called.

On the {7-Diamonds} turn, Hunichen continued betting, making it 22,000. Schulman called.

The river was the {6-Clubs} and Hunichen slowed down and checked. Schulman moved all in for over 100,000 and Hunichen sighed, then folded.

Katz showed down his {j-Spades}{3-Diamonds} for top pair, but he'd been bested by Schulman's {q-Clubs}{9-Clubs} for a rivered flush and would be eliminated.

Sean Winter: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}

The flop came down {9-Spades}{3-Spades}{a-Diamonds} and Winter said "Come on ace of clubs on the turn,". The dealer flipped over the {5-Hearts} on the turn and Winter would need a king to take out Schindler. The {6-Clubs} on the river was not that and Schindler secured a double up with his pair of aces.

On the {10-Spades} river, Kempe checked a third time. Koon now bet 48,000. Kempe thought for a few seconds then called. Koon showed {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} and that earned him the pot when Kempe mucked.

"Not that thin," Kempe responded.
