BATB Event #14 ($1,500 NLH Championship): Rough Runout Sees TJ Shulman Out In 10th Place ($9,739), Kay Wins 2,800,000 Pot

2018 Battles At The Beach
Event #14 | $1,500 NLH Championship ($500,000 GTD)

Level 26 (Blinds 25,000/50,000/5,000) | Structure
Total Entries: 433
Players Remaining: 9

"Well that was a gross way to go," TJ Shulman (Boynton Beach, FL) said after getting knocked out, as his flopped set was bested by a straight on the river.

Jake Schwartz opened the action with a raise to 120,000, with players folding to TJ Shulman, who three-bet shoved for 230,000.  Joshua Kay then announced that he was all-in as well, which elicited quick folds from the players left to act.  After asking for a count of Kay's stack (1,300,000), Schwartz would make the call, giving us the biggest pot of the day:

Shulman: 9♠ 9
Kay: 10♠ 10
Schwartz: A♠ K

Runout: 9 6♠ 8 4 7♣

Shulman flopped top set to grab the lead, with Kay still holding strong in regards to the side pot.  The river would change everything, as Kay made a ten-high straight, which would eliminate TJ Shulman in 10th place ($9,739).

Jake Schwartz - 2,950,000
Joshua Kay - 2,800,000
