Schulman Falls

With the board reading {A-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{5-Spades}, we arrived at the table to find Nick Schulman having check-raised a bet of 5,000 to 12,800. Massimiliano Martinez, though, was next to act and he shoved with the big stack. The better folded, putting the decision on Schulman for his remaining 54,000ish.

After about 30 seconds Schulman called and tabled {A-Spades}{J-Spades}. Martinez showed {3-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for flush and straight draws and while he didn't get there on the {6-Hearts} turn, he did when the {7-Clubs} river fell.
