Seiver Gives One Up to Zhigalov as Bleznick Reveals His Secret

David Salituro

Level 14

Andrey Zhigalov: XxXx/3x2x4x7x/Xx
Scott Seiver: XxXx/Jx6xAxJx - folded on sixth street
Dylan Weisman: XxXx/8x7x2x - folded on fifth street

"Only two?" Ren Lin said after asking how many bracelets Scott Seiver has won this WSOP.

"Might be three. Ask again in a few days," Seiver replied.

"Ask again tomorrow. I know how Scott keeps winning these tournaments, and it's not about what he's doing. It's what everyone else isn't doing. I've seen the things he does, and it's not that impressive," Jared Bleznick added.

Seiver then called a bet on fourth street from Andrey Zhigalov, while Dylan Weisman also came along. Zhigalov bet again on fifth, Seiver called, and Weisman folded.

Zhigalov fired out another bet on sixth and Seiver folded this time.

"How did you get so many chips? You're terrible. Are you lucky like me" Lin joked with Seiver after the hand.
