Seidel Dumps Some to Tuhrim

Level 14 : 1,200/2,400, 2,400 ante

Richard Tuhrim

Richard Tuhrim opened to 6,000 from early position and was called by Erik Seidel in the small blind. The flop came {9-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs} and Seidel check-called a bet of 6,500 from Tuhrim.

The turn brought the {k-Spades} and Seidel checked again, leaving the door open for Tuhrim to bet another 14,000. Seidel called and the {3-Diamonds} paired the board on the river. Both players tapped the table and Seidel was first to show his cards, tabling {q-Spades}{j-Clubs}. Tuhrim flipped over {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} for just a pair of eights, but that was enough to win the pot.
