Jeff Shulman Bricks and Busts

Jeff Shulman
Jeff Shulman

Razz

The chips were all in on third street between Jeff Shulman and Ward Crane on what would be the last hand of the event for Shulman.

Shulman: 2-8 / 6-6-A-K / A
Crane: J-9 / 3-2-K-4 / 4

Shulman was looking good when the money went in, but sixth and seventh street were terrible for him. Crane ended up with the better hand and Shulman gets to go to bed a little earlier than the rest of them.

Zuffi Gets There on the River

Omaha 8/b

Regis Burlot and Mark Zuffi were in the small blind and big blind, respectively, for a recent hand. Burlot raised after the action folded to him. Zuffi debated before calling to a flop of {4-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {9-Spades}. Burlot continued and got a call from Zuffi, who mentioned something about calling one time.

The turn was the {a-Diamonds}. Burlot bet again. Again Zuffi called. On the river {2-Diamonds}, Burlot checked and called one bet from Zuffi.

"Flush?" Zuffi asked. Burlot shook his head, prompting Zuffi to open {q-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {5-Diamonds} {7-Hearts}, a diamond flush, and a 7-5 low. That was a scooper.

"Lucky," said Zuffi. "On the river."

Jett Scoops Chainsaw

Jett: {4-}{6-}{5-} / {3-Spades}{8-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Kessler: {4-}{7-}{8-} / {a-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{k-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}

Allen Kessler completed after another player had brought in and Chip Jett was the only player to call. Kessler would go on to bet fourth street, and once more Jett agreed to go along for the ride.

Both players checked fifth street, but Kessler check-called bets from Jett on sixth street and the river.

When the cards were tabled, Jett's pair was good for the high, and his low was lower than Kessler's.

Keep Firing

Hold'em

Dustin Leary raised pre-flop, only to be re-raised by button player Thomas Hunt. Leary called to an all-club flop, {4-Clubs} {5-Clubs} {7-Clubs}. Leary check-called once, check-called again on the {4-Hearts} turn, and then checked the {q-Hearts} river. Hunt fired one last barrel, finally inducing a fold from Leary.

You've Got a Flush, Allen

Stud

It might have been all the razzing Allen Kessler is getting from Al Barbieri over suggestions Kessler is making to the tournament supervisors, but Kessler just lost track of his cards and proclaimed he had a pair of threes when the river was checked down in a hand against an opponent. It turns out Kessler actually had a flush, which some of the other players at his table pointed out.

Kessler: {a-Spades}{4-Spades}{3-Spades} / {3-Hearts}{k-Clubs}{10-Spades}{5-Spades}
Opponent: (XXX) / {k-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{9-Spades}{2-Diamonds}

Kessler had completed on third street with his opponent calling. On fourth street Kessler called a bet, and the two checked it down the rest of the way.

Daniel Huseman Eliminated

Stud 8/b

A short-stacked Daniel Huseman was all in on fourth street against Jon Turner. Huseman opened {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds} / {2-Hearts} {k-Diamonds} and was racing to two pair against Turner's {a-Spades} {6-Spades} / {4-Hearts} {6-Hearts}. Turner caught the {5-Diamonds}, {3-Hearts} and {a-Diamonds} to make a six-low and two pair, aces and sixes. Huseman caught a second king on fifth street, but never improved from kings and tens. He's been eliminated in 27th place.

Kalpakis Sends Hong Home

Stud 8/b

Jay Hong's remaining chips were in the middle on fourth street when we arrived to see Danny Kalpakis win the hand and eliminate Hong.

Hong: {3-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Kalpakis: {10-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{j-Spades}{q-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{7-Spades}

Kalpakis' straight was good for the high, and there was no low, giving Kalpakis the entire pot.
