Seidel Runs Into Szabo's Straight
Level 3
: 500/1,000, 0 ante
Gabor Szabo bet 15,000 on a flop of J♠5♠6♦ and Erik Seidel called.
The turn came the 8♦ and Szabo bet another 31,000. Seidel again called to see the Q♦ river, where Szabo put in a green 25,000 chip and announced he was all in.
Seidel asked for a count and tanked for a moment before announcing a call. Szabo turned over 9♣7♣ for the straight and Seidel flashed A♦J♥ before mucking as Szabo, runner-up to Jason Koon in this event two years ago, doubled up for 92,000.
