The Champ Goes Runner-Runner Against Seidel
Level 11
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
Moments after he busted Antonio Esfandiari, Erik Seidel hit the rail thanks to Joe McKeehen. McKeehen had put Seidel all in on the 
flop, and Seidel called off his stack with the 
for bottom pair with a flush draw. McKeehen had the 
for a worse flush draw.
The turn was the 
, and the river was the 
. That combination of cards gave McKeehen a straight and sent Seidel packing.
"I'm not gonna lie, when I saw the turn I thought I was going to win," McKeehen said after the hand.
McKeehen increased his stack to almost 1.6 million with that pot.
