A sequence of quick events changed the landscape of Seniors NLH event.

First, long the chip leader, Paul Tong lost a few pots, taking the shine off his lead. Then a big one against former tiny stack Larry Munz. Previously wanting a favorable adjusted payout, he now had no room to negotiate.

Bad spot: Tong calls a shove with sevens only to be shown an overpair.

The tournament looked set to go on into the night, but Howard Schuman cooled off Munz for a double, versus .

Final hand. The dealer pays out Howard’s double to the lead.

Instead of protracted play or negotiations, chip leader Schuman had different asperations: getting on the road for a long drive home. He wanted the trophy but let the group take even shares in a generous deal.

Howard Schuman (Brightwaters, NY) was dramatically up and down all tournament, it’s fitting he bounces across the finish line for first and $3,730. Congrats, Howard!

The rest of the final table each took $3,300
