Peters Sends Seem Out

Level 11 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Vidhi Seem raised in early position to 5,500 and it was three-bet ton 16,000 by Mark Peters. It folded back to Seem who tanked for a few minutes and decided to pushed all in for a remaining stack around 28,000. It was snap-called by Peters.

Seem, with {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}, was facing {q-Clubs}{q-Diamonds} in Peter's hand. The board {7-Diamonds}{a-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{10-Clubs} didn't improve Seem's hand who made her way to the exit while Peters added the chips to his stack.
