No Ninth Bracelet For Seidel

Erik Seidel was riding a fairly short stack for most of the past few hours, and that finally caught up to him, as he has just been eliminated. Fabrizio Gonzalez made it 12,000, and it folded around to Seidel in the big blind. He announced pot, and Gonzalez thought very briefly before announcing all in. Seidel called, and the cards were flipped up.

Seidel: {a-Diamonds}{k-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}
Gonzalez: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{7-Hearts}{4-Clubs}

The flop was ugly for Seidel, as it came {8-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{3-Hearts}. This gave Gonzalez the nut low, and Seidel would need a king, three, or seven to make a better high hand. The turn came the {6-Spades}, giving him no help, and the river brought the {j-Diamonds}. Gonzalez scooped the pot, and the most decorated player in the field was sent to the rail.
