Seidel Makes His Move on the River

Level 8 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The action folded to Erik Seidel on the button who raised it up to 20,000. Matthew Gonzales three-bet to 78,000 from the small blind and Seidel called. The flop came {j-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{2-Hearts} and Gonzales led out for 32,000 which Seidel called.

The turn brought the {4-Diamonds} and Gonzales sized up another bet of 112,000. Seidel still just called and the {6-Diamonds} completed the board. Gonzales opted to check this time and Seidel announced a bet of 200,000. Before the chips even got in the middle, Gonzales flew his cards to the muck and Seidel raked in the pot.
