Hand #55-- Jacobo Fernandez

Jacobo Fernandez
Jacobo Fernandez
It was folded to Dave Seidman on the button and he raised to 70,000. Jacobo Fernandez reraised to 170,000 and Seidman made the call. The flop came {5-Diamonds} {A-Clubs} {5-Clubs} and Fernandez bet 200,000, enough to chase Seidman.

Hand #57-- Ben Sprengers Doubles Through Rajesh Vohra

Ben Sprengers
Ben Sprengers
Fernandez raised to 55,000 and Vohra reraised to 165,000 and Sprengers moved all in for 402,000. Fernandez flexed his knuckles as he pondered his decision while Vohra stood up next to his chair and grinned at his friends. Fernandez folded and Vohra looked down at Sprengers, eventually getting Ben to laugh. Vohra counted out enough chips to call, stacked them up, stood up and looked at the ceiling...before making the call.

He felt he was priced in with {9-Spades} {3-Spades} but was way behind Sprengers' {A-Diamonds} {A-Clubs}. The {7-Diamonds} {2-Spades} {10-Spades} gave Vohra a miracle flush draw, but the board ran out {4-Clubs} {5-Diamonds} and Sprengers doubled up.

Hand #61-- Scott Seiver

Seiver raised to 65,000 and Seidman called on the button. The flop came {5-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} and both players checked. The {4-Spades} turned and Seiver bet 75,000. Seidman called, and the river was the {4-Diamonds}. Seiver bet 175,000 and Seidman called. Seiver showed A-7 for sevens and fours, and that was enough to win the pot.

Hand #62-- Dave Seidman

Seidman raised to 70,000 and Sprengers called from the big blind. The flop came the {J-Spades} {5-Spades} {9-Clubs} and both players checked, as they did when the {K-Hearts} and {A-Clubs} fell on the turn and river. Seidman won the pot with A-7 and Sprengers mucked.
