Howard Schuman lay in the weeds, flatting aces preflop, inducing the shove from Carl Copeland holding 
.
Carl Copeland is bust.
A good blocker hand to rip in, but a poor match up against the Birds. Carl takes $920 for strong run to 8th, while Schuman, down to just a few bigs this level, shot back back above average at 250,000.
Can’t hold: Howard pounds the stack of owed chips for the dealer to push to Rinker.
However, Schuman can’t keep his hands on his stack. He gets cooled off by the constantly doubling Rinker, who hits the nut flush draw on the flop, outdrawing flopped bottom two. Steve had fallen to 130,000 but now is above average.
Schuman is back to critical, as we take a short break.
