Seidel Goes from Half to Three-Quarters

Level 14 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

PLO-8

The board read {a-}{8-}{6-}{5-}{5-} with the two hands already tabled. Erik Seidel held {a-}{6-}{5-}{2-} while his opponent showed {a-}{q-}{6-}{2-}. After the flop, it looked as though the two players were going to chop the pot, and they had nearly taken their money back already.

However, the runner-runner fives gave Seidel a full house to win the high and the two players chopped the low end, leaving his opponent with under 3,000 chips.
