Title: A Bad Scramble for Breakfast?
Log: Allyn Jaffrey Shulman was the first player eliminated today amidst some controversy. On the very first hand, Shulman was dealt A-K suited and got it all in against an opponent with pocket tens, one of those tens being a heart. The flop came 8h-7h-6h. The player with the tens took a huge lead in the hand after this flop, as he still had his overpair, and now had a gutshot straight flush draw. The turn sealed Shulman's fate when it came 9h, completing here opponent's ten high straight flush. Keep in mind that this was on the first hand of the day, with a brand new deck.
