Paeper Tens Kicks Shulman Out

Level 30 : Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante

From middle position, Tj Shulman opened to 450,000, leaving behind around 50,000 with him. Kurt Paeper, in cutoff, shoved all-in for 550,000 in response, pushing the remaining players out of the hand.

When action went back to him, Shulman put in his remaining chips and asked, "What am I looking at here?" before tabling his hand.

Tj Shulman: K5 All in
Kurt Paeper: 1010

Paeper was ahead but the J23 flop gave Shulman some hope for an upset. The dealer completed the board with a 9 turn and the 4 river, with no help to Shulman at all. Shulman left the table as Paeper scooped the pot.
