2009 November Nine member Shulman was shortstack when he went all-in withA 2 and Casey McCarrel called with J 8 . The J 8 4 5 K board gave the latter two pairs and so Shulman was the first at the rail. Next were Ron Burke, McCarrel, Mitch Schock, Matt Sterling and Keller; finally, Bonkowski and Demes played the heads-up after the elimination of Andrew Brongo.
The two were nearly 1:1 on stacks (1,510,000 in front of Bonkowski against Demes’ 1,490,000), but Demes was quick to get a couple of huge pots, amassing 2,750,000 versus Bonkowski’s 250,000. The latter, however, showing off an amazing comeback, gained the lead by Level 27 (20,000/40,000). In the last hand, players pushed their stacks in on the6 5 5 T board:
