Nick Schulman Eliminated in 7th Place ($56,729)

David Bach raised to 75,000 in middle position and was called by Phil Laak in the cutoff. When action reached Nick Schulman in the big blind, he announced a raise and made it 245,000 more to go. Bach instantly repotted, Laak folded, and Schulman called off for a total of 600,000.

Bach: {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}
Schulman: {6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}

Schulman was behind and had quite the hill to climb. The {10-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{8-Hearts} gave Schulman a pair of fives, leaving him in need of some help. The {8-Spades} turn was not what he was looking for, and neither was the {6-Diamonds} river. Bach held the nut low with aces and eights, enough to scoop the pot and send Schulman bolting for the exit in seventh place.
