Top Two No Good For Shulman

On a board of {3-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}, Barry Shulman fired out a bet only to find his opponent reply with the phrase "I'm all in".

Shulman announced a call, confidently turning over {J-Clubs}{10-Spades} for top two pair. Unfortunately for Shulman, his opponent tabled {3-Spades}{3-Diamonds} for bottom set.

"Oh, well that's good" said Shulman.

The turn and river bricked out for Shulman, falling {9-Hearts}{4-Hearts}. Shulman peeled 14,400 off of his stack and pushed it in the direction of his opponent.
