Seibel Busts Xue to Set up Day 2 Bubble
Level 14
: 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Jin Xue raised to 60,000 from middle position, leaving himself just 10,000 behind. Higor Seibel then three-bet to approximately 100,000 in the hijack and action folded back to Xue, who called all in to put himsself at risk.
Jin Xue: A♠9♣
Higor Seibel: K♣Q♣
Xue held a slight lead with his ace, but that quickly evaporated on the K♠4♣J♥ flop — pairing Seibel's king to vault him into the lead.
The 4♥ turn nor 6♣ river changed anything and Xue was eliminated two spots shy of a Day-2 berth.
