Barry Shulman made it 180,000 to play from the cutoff seat, and Benjamin Zamani called from the big blind. The flop brought out {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{9-Diamonds}

{3-Clubs}

, and Zamani tapped the table. Shulman fired a continuation bet of 450,000, only to see Zamani moved all in over the top of him. Shulman considered for a moment before making the call for his total stack of 2,155,000, now all in and at risk of elimination.

Showdown
Shulman: {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

Zamani:

{Q-Diamonds}

{10-Spades}

Shulman only held ace-high, but he was in the lead as the cards laid. Zamani was drawing for a nine, ten, or king to knock off his opponent. The {4-Hearts}

{4-Hearts}

on the turn was a safe rag, and the {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

that rivered secured Shulman's double up with a pair of aces.
