Hand #135 - Alexander Kostritsyn

Alexander Kostritsyn has the button. He completes the small blind and Seidel checks from the big blind. The flop is {J-Clubs}{7-Spades}{3-Diamonds}. Kostritsyn bets 90,000 and Seidel calls. The turn is the {Q-Hearts}. Kostritsyn bets 225,000, Seidel folds, and Kostritsyn wins the pot.

Heads Up Analysis: Kostritsyn Shines Early

In the first dozen or so hands of heads up play, it's Alexander Kostritsyn who has done the most damage. He took a nice chunk of Seidel's stack on the first hand of heads up. Then, he woke up with Aces (and they held up despite only winning a small pot). The young Russian appears to be more than holding his own against the savvy veteran.

Hand #127 - Erik Seidel

Alexander Kostritsyn has the button. He completes the small blind and Erik Seidel checks from the big blind. The flop is {Q-Diamonds}{J-Spades}{10-Hearts}. Seidel bets 75,000, Kostritsyn folds, and Seidel wins the pot.
