Erik Seidel made a timely double up with his Big Slick against Alexander Kostritsyn's . He definitely had to sweat out that hand after Alexander Kostritsyn flopped an open ended straight and then turned a flush draw. Luckily, Seidel's lucky wombat warded off any bad river cards and his hand held up. Seidel doubled up and has been slowly crawling back into contention.
"Russia versus the United States. The cold war has been re-ignited," said Matt Savaged as he described the heads up battle.
