Schulman Survives

Level 8

Razz

Nick Schulman: 103 / A6510 / Xx All in
Ben Yu: A7 / 65K10 / Xx

Nick Schulman put in his last 4,000 with his ace door card. Ben Yu raised, which folded out the rest of the table.

Schulman had a ten-six going into seventh street, ahead of Yu's ten-seven.

Yu failed to improve when he turned over the 6, which was what Schulman wanted to see as he found the inconsequential K on seventh.

Schulman collected the antes, but fell back down to 10,000 after a few hands.

It checked to Benyamine who bet 50,000. Matusow went deep into the tank before he folded, everyone else also let go after.

Benyamine tossed his 6x5x4x3x2x on the felt and then said "Mike, you made a decent fold".

Justin Smith chimed in and mentioned "it was a fair fold".
