Shulman Gets Happy

Action folded to the small blind who limped into the pot before Jeff Shulman raised to 7,000 from the big blind. The small blind immediately reraised all in to 33,200 and Shulman thought for about 10 seconds before making the call.

Small Blind: {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Shulman: {A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}

The flop of {4-Spades}{J-Clubs}{8-Hearts} paired Shulman, but the {7-Spades} on the turn was of no help. The {A-Spades} on the river was a different story though, giving Shulman two pair and the pot while sending his opponent to the rail. Shulman is now near the 300,000 mark.
