Level 7 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Erik Seidel raised to 27,000 in middle position and Waikiat Lee reraised to 100,000 out of the small blind. Seidel called and the dealer fanned the flop of J♥8♠7♦. Lee continued with a bet of 40,000 and Seidel just called.

The turn was the Q♦ and Lee fired out another bet of 130,000. Seidel still called and the K♥ completed the board. Lee dropped in a bet of 325,000 and Seidel quickly looked him up. Lee turned over K♠K♦ for top set while Seidel held J♠J♦ for an inferior set of jacks.

Seidel was left with just 14,000 chips after the hand but was seen leaving the table moments later.

Level 7 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Bernhard Binder opened 25,000 in the hijack and Jeremy Ausmus three-bet 75,000 next to act. The action folded back around to Binder and he made the call.

When the K♠6♣4♦ flop hit the felt, Binder check-called a continuation bet of 50,000 from Ausmus.

The J♥ fell on the turn and once checked to, Ausmus fired another shell of 175,000. Binder took a few moments and matched the bet.

The K♥ paired the board on the river and Binder checked once again. Ausmus paused for a moment before deciding to check-back. Binder rolled A♦J♦ for jacks and kings with an ace-kicker and Ausmus mucked his hand.

Level 6 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

The tournament, which is being live reported by PokerNews, attracted 182 entrants and offered up an $18,200,000 prize pool. On Day 2, a little over 40 players remained when Texas Mike, in his own words, “punted.”
