Petrangelo Busts; Schulman Hits a Milly

Level 8 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

On one of the last hands of the night, a pot of over one million just happened with Justin Saliba having the chance to bust Nick Petrangelo and Nick Schulman.

Nick Petrangelo: 5♦5♣ All in
Nick Schulman: AxQx All in
Justin Saliba: AxKx

Petrangelo only had a few big blinds, whereas Schulman had 556,000. If Saliba's big slick could hold, then he would end the day as one of the chip leaders.

The board ran out J♠8♣3♣9♥10♣ to give Schulman an unlikely straight on the river. Petrangelo was out, Saliba was down to around 200,000, and Schulman's stack climbed to over seven figures.
