Seidel Gets Kings Again and Busts Polk

Level 8 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Doug Polk raised to 30,000 from under the gun, and Erik Seidel reraised to 75,000 from the cutoff seat. Play folded back to Polk, and he moved all in. Seidel snapped with the {K-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}, and that had Polk's {A-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} in trouble.

The {J-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} board gave Seidel the win and sent Polk packing.

Smith Doubles; Trickett Crippled

Level 8 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

Dan Smith was all in with the {A-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} against the {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} of Sam Trickett. The flop, turn, and river ran out {J-Spades}{5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{A-Clubs}, and Smith doubled to over 600,000. Trickett was left with about 20,000, although he did double up on the next hand through Scott Seiver.
