All Seif all the Time

We're not trying to give Mark Seif extra coverage, but he seems to be involved in every huge hand. In our latest installment of the Seif files, the flop came {3-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{Q-Spades}. Seif checked, a third player checked, and Alan Le (brother of Nam Le - and boy does he look like him) bet out 1,100. Seif raised to 2,500 and the third player moved all in for 9,100 more.

Seif decided he had had enough, and folded. The hands were turned over.

Opponent {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}
Le {3-Spades}{3-Diamonds}

Le's set of threes held up, and he is now over 45,000 in chips.

Mike Swick Leaves 'Em Limping

You don't see many family pots in the World Series of Poker but in a hand that had eight, EIGHT limpers, UFC fighter Mike Swick won a big pot when he had two players call his 1,000 bet on the {9-Spades}{4-Hearts}{10-Hearts} flop and his 2,000 bet after the {A-Clubs} on the turn, before they submitted to his 3,000 bet when the {7-Hearts} hit on the river. Swick now has 22,400.

Jim Pittman is Not at The Crazy Horse

After seeing a {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs} flop three way, a player in middle postion made it 900 to go, and Mark Seif called. Jim Pittman moved in from the big blind for 4,000 more. Both Seif, and the other player called. The turn was the {A-Spades}. The third player checked, Mark Seif bet 4,000, and the third player called. The river was the {9-Hearts}. Seif bet out 6,000 and the opponent folded.

When the hands were turned up, Seif's three Aces {A-Clubs}{7-Clubs}, was trumped by Jim's full house {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. Seif broke about even on the hand becasue he won the side pot.

Upon Tripling up, Jim Pittman stacked his chips, and told us "Be sure and put that hand up on the Internet, so my wife knows I'm not at the Crazy Horse"
