Erik Seidel Out

Erik Seidel got on the wrong side of a blind-versus-blind confrontation, when his opponent flopped a full house holding {6-Spades}{9-Spades}. Seidel bet at the pot on the turn, committing himself to the pot in the process. His opponent moved in, and Erik was pot-committed, and drawing dead.

"Seat Open -- Table xx!!!"

We're starting to be at that stage in the tournament where we are going to hear that cry a lot around the Amazon Room (and the players' pavilion). Stacks are getting short, players are getting desperate, and tables are going to begin to break . . . quickly.

Ng Down a Notch . . . Then Out

The Grinder calls under the gun, and Evelyn Ng makes it 900 to go. The player in the cutoff calls, as does Mizrachi. The flop comes {K-Diamonds}{Q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds} Mizrachi checks, Evelyn bets 1,200, and the opponent in the cutoff moves in for a total of 2,000. Mizrachi folds, and Evelyn calls. Both players have A-K, but Ng's opponent has the {A-Diamonds}. A diamond {2-Diamonds} falls on the turn, and Evelyn is clipped down to under 2,000.

A couple hands later, Evelyn moves in with {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}, and gets called by a player with {A-Spades}{J-Clubs}. The {A-Hearts} falls on the turn, and Evelyn is free to go.

You Cannot Stop Mark Seif . . .

You can only hope to contain him.

Mark Seif made it 1,000 from the cutoff, and Greg Mueller called all in for less with 675. Another player in late position called, and we were off to the flop. The flop came {A-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades}. Seif checked, the player in late position moved in, and Seif called with....A set of Aces {A-Spades}{A-Hearts}.

Mark Seif is up to 42,000 chips, and Greg Mueller is out of the tournament.

Humberto Brenes' "Shark" Smells a Bluff

A player bet out 650 from the cut-off, and Humberto Brenes called from the button. The {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} came on the flop, and both players checked. The turn was the {9-Spades}, the cut-off bet 700 and Brenes called. An {8-Clubs} came on the river and the player in the cut-off bet 1,500. Brenes smiled and held his shark. I call, and Brenes turned over J-9 for two pair. His opponent showed K-10 before he mucked his cards. Guess that proves Humberto's shark can smell a bluff from a mile away (or at least across the table).
