Before the hand the three tried to strike a bit of a deal. Trickett wanted no part of it, but they decided to save $100k, creating a third place prize of $1.1 million and a second place prize of $1.4 million.

When the cards were dealt, Erik Seidel had the button, and there was a dead small blind with David Benyamine in the big blind. Seidel bumped it up to 65,000 and Benyamine moved all in.

Seidel said "Really? Holy shit!"

He then folded, while saying "this could be a mistake."
