Schulman Exits Via the Backdoor
Level 8
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Nick Schulman shoved all in for around 120,000 from early position and got a call from the player in the hijack. Francisco Benitez then shipped all in from the cutoff, which got the rest of the table to fold.
Nick Schulman: A♣Q♣ 
Francisco Benitez: J♠J♦
Schulman shot into the lead on the 7♠A♠4♣ flop and was the favorite to double up, however, backdoor spades gave Benitez a flush as the runout of 9♠5♠ sent Schulman to the rail.
