Seidel Scoops Massive Pot; Tedschi Eliminated
Action trickled around to Erik Seidel on the button and he came out with a raise to 8,000. Paul Tedeschi called him from the big blind and the two went heads up to the flop.
The dealer fanned 
and Tedeschi checked. Seidel fired out a continuation bet of 9,000 and Tedeschi came right back over the top for 25,000. Seidel went into the tank and repeatedly shuffled a small stack of orange t25,000 chips. He looked at his cards one more time then went back to shuffling.
"Raise," Seidel quietly said.
Seidel slowly and deliberately cut out a three-bet that made the action 80,000 to go. Tedeschi waited about fifteen seconds before declaring that he was all in Seidel took one more look at his cards and called.
Tedeschi: 
Seidel: 
Tedeschi managed to flop top two pair but it was nothing against Seidel's made straight. Tedeschi was looking to make a full house on the subsequent streets but did not get there as the 
turned and the 
rivered. The chips were counted to find Seidel had 236,000 which just covered Tedeschi's 226,000. The Frenchman hit he rail while Seidel dragged in the massive pot. He's currently sitting on about 485,000.
