Nick Schulman raised from the cutoff and was three-bet by Mike Wattel on the button. Action folded back to Schulman, who made it four bets to go, which was enough to put Wattel all in. Wattel called and a showdown was held.
Mike Wattel: A♠10♥
Nick Schulman: K♣7♣
Wattel had a slight lead with his ace, and Wattel was one card away from doubling up on the 2♣J♦6♣ flop and 2♦ turn.
It wasn't meant to be, however, as the K♦ river paired Schulman's king on the end — eliminating Wattel in fifth place.
