Seidel at the Table of Doom

Level 5 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Erik Seidel
Erik Seidel

Daniel Lee moved all in from the cutoff for his last 17,000 and got calls from Erik Seidel on the button and Yunkyu Song in the small blind.

Both Seidel and Song checked down the 658 flop, 6 turn, and 4 river. Daniel Lee thought he might have won with his A9, for ace-high until Song tabled 33 for a pair. Seidel held KJ. Lee was sent to the rail.

In the very next hand at the same table Randal Heeb raised from under the gun to 9,000 only for Jiaxin Sun to three-bet all in to 33,000 from the small blind. Tyler Montoya flat called from the big blind and then Heeb four-bet to 75,000. Montoya then came back over the top and five-bet jammed for 203,000, Heeb called and he had all players covered.

Jiaxin Sun: KJAll in
Tyler Montoya: KKAll in
Randal Heeb: AK

The flop came 4102 and when the 8 fell on the turn Heeb was left drawing to an ace to eliminate two players. The 2 brick came on the turn and Montoya scooped a monster pot and sent Sun packing whilst leaving Heeb running on fumes.
