Schulman: {x-}{x-} / {3-Spades}{9-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{6-Spades} / {x-}
Brunson: {x-}{x-} / {5-Clubs}{4-Spades}{4-Hearts}{10-Clubs} / {x-}
Racener: {x-}{x-} / {7-Clubs}{J-Spades}{K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} / {x-}

A series of bets left Nick Schulman all in on third street for the rest of his chips. He was called by Jameson Painter, Phillip Hui, John Racener, and Todd Brunson.

On fourth street, Brunson was checked to. He bet and was called by Painter, Racener, and Hui. On fifth, Brunson bet again after picking up the betting lead. Only Racener called this time.

Brunson bet again on sixth, and Racener called. Brunson bet again on seventh, and Racener called. Brunson showed {4-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for a full house, and that was enough to get a muck from Racener. Schulman sweated his last two cards.

"I know I had ace-deuce of clubs," he said. He turned up {a-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and sweated his last card. Finally, he turned it up, but it was the {2-Spades}, and that sent him packing from the tournament.

The big pot helped Brunson pad his already massive stack here on Day 1.
