Seidel Drills a Straight vs Weinraub

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

Three ways to the 9A106 turn, Chris Hunichen checked from the big blind and Erik Seidel bet 20,000 from the hijack. Adam Weinraub raised to 50,000 on the button, which only Seidel called.

Seidel checked the 7 river and Weinraub fired 65,000. Seidel didn't take long before coming back with a check-raise to 150,000, and Weinraub quickly paid him off.

Seidel turned over A8 for a rivered straight, causing Weinraub to throw his cards up above his head in frustration before revealing 66 for a turned set.

As the mountain of chips was pushed Seidel's way, Weinraub joked, "I had you right where I wanted you," earning a smile from Seidel.
