Emanuel Seal Goes Extinct

Emanuel Seal from Day 1a
Emanuel Seal from Day 1a
Under the gun, Lance Patison limped in, and action passed around to the blinds. David Lee called the extra half-bet from the small blind, but Emanuel Seal wasn't in the mood for a free flop. He moved all in, pushing out his last 17,800 chips. Patison went into the tank for a few minutes before opting to call, putting Seal's tournament in jeopardy. Lee got out of the way.

Showdown:
Patison: {3-Hearts} {3-Clubs}
Seal: {A-Diamonds} {7-Clubs}

Seal found an ace on the flop, but Patison got the best of it, as the dealer spread {A-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} {3-Spades}. Patison's set of threes had his opponent in a bad spot, two cards away from the exit. The turn was the {9-Clubs}, leaving Seal drawing dead to the river, which was a meaningless {4-Spades}.

Lance Patison improves his chip count to 85,000, knocking Emanuel Seal out in the process.
