Sebok Double-Up #2

Billy Kopp raised it up from middle position, making it 80,000 to play. On the button, Joe Sebok announced an all in, committing the remaining 301,000 of his chips to the pot. When it came back to Kopp, he reluctantly made the call, Sebok now at risk for his tournament life.

Showdown
Kopp: {Q-Spades} {7-Spades}
Sebok: {9-Diamonds} {9-Hearts}

From the far side of the arena came the cheers for, "Queen! Spades! Queen or seven!" And from the near side, the PokerRoad crew was shouting, "Keep it clean, dealer! Do the right thing, keep it clean!"

Kopp paired up on the flop, but the {7-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {4-Clubs} kept Sebok safe for the time being. When the turn and river came {3-Hearts} and {5-Clubs}, Seebs locked up a huge double up, working his way up close to 700,000 now.

Don't worry about Kopp, he's still sitting on 4.1 million.
