Ly and Seiver Battle

Level 23

Hand #18

Scott Seiver had the button, George Lind raised to 120,000 from middle position, Phil Hellmuth three-bet to 260,000 from the hijack seat, and the action folded back to Lind who called.

The flop came down {5-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}, Lind checked, and Hellmuth tossed out 150,000. Lind folded, and Hellmuth took down the pot.

Hand #19

Minh Ly had the button, Owais Ahmed raised to 120,000 from the hijack seat and won the pot.

Hand #20

Matt Glantz had the button, Scott Seiver opened to 100,000 in the hijack seat, Minh Ly called in the cutoff, and Brian Rast called from the small blind.

The flop was {8-Hearts}{q-Spades}{6-Spades}, and the action checked to Ly who immediately bet 160,000. Rast and Seiver folded, and Ly took down the pot.

Hand #21

Brian Rast had the button, Scott Seiver opened to 100,000 from the cutoff, and Minh Ly called on the button.

The flop was {5-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}, Seiver checked, Ly bet 130,000, and Seiver called.

The turn was the {7-Clubs}, and Seiver checked again. Ly fired 250,000, and Seiver again called.

The river was the {q-Spades}, and both players checked.

Seiver confidently tabled {k-Diamonds}{j-Spades} for a pair of jacks, Ly mucked, and Seiver won the pot.
