button in SafariSeiver Finds the Dream Start to His Main Event
Level 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
Three ways to the K♥5♥4♦ flop with around 8,400 in the pot, Sarkis Akopian checked from middle position and Jiafeng Lin fired an overbet of 10,000 from the cutoff. Scott Seiver was next to act on the button and committed all of his 53,900 into the middle. Akopian folded, but Lin put in the call for most of his stack.
Scott Seiver: A♠K♦ 
Jiafeng Lin: K♣7♣
Seiver was at risk but held a huge lead with his ace-kicker, and only a brutal runout would end his Main Event quest early.
Lin was drawing dead after the A♣ turn gave Seiver two pair, making the 7♠ river irrelevant as it improved Lin to the inferior two pair.
Seiver doubled to almost two starting stacks, while Lin was left with around 10,000.
