Beating Damon: Chan Can't, Seidel Can!

Matt Damon attracting all the media!
Matt Damon attracting all the media!

Erik Seidel fired out 7,000 on a {A-Spades}{9-Spades}{2-Hearts} flop only to have Matt Damon move all in.

Seidel made the call for his last 11,400 and we were off to a showdown.

Seidel: {2-Clubs}{2-Spades}
Damon: {A-Clubs}{J-Hearts}

As the announcer Joe Reitman flocked to the table, along with Don Cheadle and Andy Bloch, the dealer delivered the {A-Hearts} on the turn.

"Ace, jack, nine!" screamed Bloch.

The river fell the {3-Spades} to see the pot pushed to Seidel as Damon slipped to 40,000 in chips.

"You're such a jerk Andy!" stated one of the players.

"I guess Seidel can beat Matt . . . something Johnny Chan couldn't do!" added Bloch.

"Bringing up the movie around Seidel is probably not a good idea" continued Bloch before relocating to sweat a different table, but not before adding, "Johnny f**king Chan!"
