Erik Seidel Finds a Jack to Double Through

Level 18 : 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

Richard Kirsch moved all in on the button and Erik Seidel called for his remaining stack of 25,800 in the big blind.

Seidel was in rough shape with {A-Spades}{J-Spades} against Kirsch's {A-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}.

The board ran out {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{2-Clubs} {5-Spades}, and as Seidel started backing his chair up to stand up, the {J-Hearts} fell on the river to give him two pair, along with the double up.
