Big Blind Special for Seidel Cracks Howeth's Aces for Double
Level 17
: 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
Shane Howeth opened for 20,000 from the cutoff and Reitta Seidel defended her big blind to see a 
flop.
Seidel checked her option and Howeth moved all in. Seidel went into the tank for a few minutes then called putting her stack at risk.
Reitta Seidel: 
Shane Howeth: 
Seidel flopped top-pair but was still trailing the rockets of Howeth. The 
turn gave Seidel more outs to the flush.
The dealer didn't put a third club on the board but did drop the 
on the river giving Seidel two-pair and the double-up for 80,000.
