Adam Shulman is the Next Man to Put Himself in the Sweet Sixteen
Adam Shulman is the Next Man to Put Himself in the Sweet Sixteen

We just watched Adam Shulman take down three consecutive pots against Paul Cheung, furthering his lead by forcing folds each time.

First, Shulman tossed out a bet of 3,000 with the flop showing {3-Spades}{6-Spades}{7-Diamonds}. Cheung checked his cards for a few seconds before saying "nice hand" and sliding them forward.

On the next deal, the dealer fanned a flop of {q-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{8-Spades} across the felt, and Cheung led out for a bet of 1,600. Shulman wasted no time in cutting out a stack of raising chips, and a bet of 3,700 or so was enough to push Cheung off the pot.

Finally, Shulman took a pot down preflop with a raise to 1,900 to build an even bigger lead, and as we returned to pen this report the finishing blows we're dealt to send Shulman into the Sweet Sixteen.
