Mattern Stacks Shulman

Ivan Saul raised to 8,000 from the hijack putting the action on Allyn Shulman in the cutoff. Shulman, in the midst of a shoulder massage, announced she was all-in and pushed her 63,000 chips across the betting line. Arnaud Mattern, on the button, confirmed the bet amount before moving all-in for his 104,500 stack,

Unsurprisingly following the action before them, both blinds folded. Saul looked like a man who wanted a call, but he exhaled loudly and mucked his hand leaving Shulman and Mattern to go head-to-head.

Shulman paid for her massage, stood from her seat and headed to the payout desk to collect her winnings.
