Colman Second-Best to Seidel and Kempe
Level 20
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
In a battle of the blinds, barely any chips were in the middle and the board showed 
. Dan Colman bet 70,000 out of the small blind, more than the pot, and Erik Seidel eventually called after some consideration. Colman showed 
for a bluff, and Seidel scooped the pot with 
.
One hand later, Colman opened to 35,000 and Rainer Kempe called in the big blind. The duo checked the 
flop and Kempe's bet of 41,000 had not even touched the carpet yet on the turn when Colman had already folded.
