Fast Sent Home By Seiver

Level 12 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

it's unclear how and when the chips went in but Scott Seiver was holding {A-Clubs}{Q-Clubs} against Dietrich Fast's {A-Hearts}{J-Spades}. Fast was all in and at risk as Seiver had him covered.

The board was {A-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{X-} and with his pair of aces and queen kicker, Seiver had the best of it. He sent Fast to the rail and registration for the event is now closed, so he will not be back in the tournament.

After collecting the pot, Seiver moved over 1 million chips.

It folded to Erik Seidel on the button who moved all in. Brian Green was in the big blind and called putting Seidel at risk.

Erik Seidel: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}
Brian Green: {j-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Seidel needed to win the flip to stay alive, but the {j-Spades}{8-Clubs}{2-Spades} flop was the worst start possible giving his opponent two pair. The turn {8-Spades} was even worse improving Green to a full house, and the river brought the {k-Diamonds} and Seidel was eliminated.

The river was the {5-Spades}. Petrangelo bet 185,000 and Negreanu used up a time extension before calling.

Petrangelo showed {6-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for trips and Negreanu flung his cards across the table into the muck.

Schwippert Pays off Sekularac

Igor Kurganov: {k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}

The board ran out {j-Spades}{5-Clubs}{q-Spades}{k-Hearts}{10-Spades} and as Andress got up of his seat on the turn, he sheepishly slid back in when he rivered broadway.
