Schulman Takes Down Maya

Level 6 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Nick Schulman held the chip lead for much of his heads-up match and was waiting for the right opportunity to land the final blow. The action was on Schulman in the big blind who made it 5,200 and Ben Maya shipped all in for around 25,000. Schulman quickly called and was happy to be currently ahead.

Nick Schulman: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}
Ben Maya: {8-Spades}{7-Spades}

The flop fell {q-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{9-Hearts} to give both players a straight draw, Schulman's being the better one of course. The turn was the {3-Clubs} which took away some of Maya's outs and the {9-Spades} on the river sealed the deal as Schulman advanced to the next round.
