Nikolaus Jedlicka Doubles Up

THE FIFTY--Nikolaus Jedlicka opened the pot for 350, Erik Seidel re-raised to 1,675, Nenad Medic called and Thomas Wahlroos came along for the ride as well. The flop was {10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{7-Clubs}, with everyone checking to Jedlicka, who moved all in for his remaining 10,450. Seidel passed and Medic went into the tank for three minutes or so before making the call. Wahlroos folded.

Jedlicka turned up the {8-Clubs}{10-Clubs} for top pair and an open-ended straight draw and was ahead of Medic's {J-Spades}{9-Spades}. The turn was the {5-Clubs}, the river was the {4-Clubs} and Jedlicka's flush earned him what those in his native Austria would call a "monsterpott."

"Erik Seidel gets a lot of respect," Jedlicka joked, as he stacked up his 28,500 in chips, a far cry from the 10,200 he was down to earlier.
