Seidel Gets Paid After Hitting Trip Queens on the River
Level 5
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Erik Seidel opened for 5,000 and Pedro Garagnani called from the big blind.
The flop came 
and both players tapped the table.
On the 
turn, which put two flush draws on the board, both players took nearly their full 30 seconds before opting to check.
The 
put three hearts and a pair on the board and Garagnani decided to put out a bet of 23,000, twice the amount of the pot. Seidel would need only about 20 seconds before making the call. The Brazilian could only show a black 
while Seidel turned over 
for trip queens and the win.
