Seidel Finds a Double Up
Level 11
: 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Jacob Kauffman raised under the gun to 6,000. Sean Mirrasouli called next to act, and Erik Seidel came along from the big blind.
The three players saw a flop of 9♥7♥6♣. Seidel checked, and Kauffman bet 11,000. Mirrasouli folded, and action was on Seidel. He went all in for 40,500 and Kauffman quickly called.
Erik Seidel: 6♥4♥ 
Jacob Kauffman: K♦K♥
The turn A♥ gave Seidel a flush, but Kauffman could still hit a higher flush with another heart, which would have busted the 10-time bracelet winner. The A♣ river did not do the trick however, and Seidel remains in the tournament.
