It was a wild ride for Jan Suchanek so far as he saw the stack cut short, then doubled and just now knocked out Danny Seow.
Seow check-called a bet of 4,350 out of the small blind on the 
flop and check-shoved the 
turn which Suchanek called.
Danny Seow: 
Jan Suchanek: 
The river was a meaningless 
as Seow became one of the early casualties.
