The field is now only two players away from the money, and everyone is a little on edge. Hamed Sedini open shipped from the cutoff for 142,000. The button tanked for a moment, staring sadly at the tournament clock, before tossing his cards rather than call all in. Big blind Stephane Albertini, however, didn't need to think very hard before announcing a call. "Merde!" shouted Sedini. He started to pace and shout incomprehensibly (at least to those of us without a solid background in French cursing.)
Showdown
Sedini:
Albertini:
All of Sedini's misery didn't help him, as the board ran out a clean: .
It took the dealer a while to count down the stacks. It was determined that Sedini still had about 55,000, and the players who had gathered around the table were greatly disappointed to learn that they were no closer to the cash.
