Cardplayer Exec Jeff Schulman Finishes WSOP FT in 5th Place
By Cathy Roberts on Nov 08, 2009 with Comments 0
Schulman, 34 year old Las Vegas native won 5th Place in the 2009 World Series of Poker cashing for $1,953,395 in the 2009 World Series of Poker Main event.
Until now, Schulman was best known as the president of Card Player Media in the poker world.
In his final hand of the 2009 World Series of Poker Main Event Final Table, Schulman shoved his WSOP stake into the middle of the felt with a wired pair of sevens, playing still a strong game of poker.
Saout makes the call with A9, pretty much a coinflip, 56% to 43% before the flop. A double here would give Schulman about 1/5 of the average chipstack.
The flop brought the end of Schulman’s WSOP main event coming T96/
The turn was a queen, no help for either player.
Schulman still needed a straight card, or another 7. The river was a 4, and Schulman’s season was over.
T96 Q 4
Darvin Moon, the chipleader at 12am PST, is now at 3am, the shortstack.
