Scott Seiver Flops the Joint to Eliminate Cary Katz

Level 7 : 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Cary Katz
Cary Katz

A short-stacked Cary Katz moved all in for his last 27,000 from the cutoff and Scott Seiver isolated by three-betting all in from the small blind.

Katz: {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}
Seiver: {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}

Katz was looking for some help, but instead he was left drawing dead after the flop came down {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{a-Spades} to give Seiver a full house. The {3-Spades} turn and {2-Clubs} river were just formalities before Seiver was pushed the pot.

"Just wasn't a good day," Katz told Maria Ho in his post-elimination interview. "When players are this aggressive, you've got to hit some hands."

Katz added: "I think the Poker Masters has been an amazing success."
