Seidel's King is No Good
Level 6
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Erik Seidel opened from the hijack seat with a raise to 6,500. Mikalai Vaskaboinikau called from the button and Yang Zhang called from the big blind.
The flop came down 
and Zhang checked to Seidel. Seidel put out a bet of 10,000. Vaskaboinikau folded but Zhang called.
Seidel and Zhang then checked down on the 
turn and the 
river. Seidel showed 
but it was no good because Zhang was holding 
, for a king with a better kicker, and he took down the pot. Despite that, Seidel has chipped up a bit already and has already moved over the starting stack.
