Trickett Gets Tricky With Air

Level 13 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Sam Trickett limped from the button, and Erik Seidel bumped it up, making it 125,000 more. Trickett made the call, and the two saw a {5-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} flop.

Seidel fired out a bet of 150,000, and Trickett made the call bringing the {4-Hearts} to the felt. Seidel then checked, and Trickett bet 300,000, with Seidel making the call.

The river was the {5-Diamonds}, and Seidel again checked to Trickett, who shuffled a stack of chocolate 25k chips before sliding out a bet of 720,000 as the clock hit zero. Seidel gave himself the maximum amount of time to make his decisison, and finally made the call. His gut feeling was right, as Trickett showed {k-Diamonds}{6-Spades} for air, and Seidel's {9-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} was good to take this big pot.
