: 1,000/2,000, 300 ante
Erik Seidel was under the gun and seemed to be contemplating a bet. A moment passeed and the dealer reminded him that the action is on him. Giving a sheepish smile, Seidel released his cards.
When it got to Jean-Noel Thorel he opened the pot to 6,000 and Daniel Alaei, sitting to his left, called. The Blinds folded and the flop fell 
. Thorel continued for 16,000 and was called by Alaei. Thorel bet out again, for 30,000 on a turn card 
. That was enough for Alaei and he releases his hand.
