Davies Getting His Money's Worth

Level 10 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

On his third bullet of the day, Seth Davies will have to finish sixth or better in order to make it a profitable day...and he's on the road to doing just that. After winning a big pot against Isaac Haxton earlier, Davies was back at it again.

Erik Seidel opened to 16,000 from under the gun and Davies three-bet to 45,000 on the button. The blinds folded and Seidel four-bet shoved all in for just over 200,000. Davies quickly called and tabled {a-Hearts}{k-Hearts}.

"Shit," Seidel said as he turned over {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}. The rest of the table laughed but it was no joking matter when the flop came {a-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}. The {4-Hearts} on the turn gave Davies a flush and Seidel was drawing dead to the {q-Clubs} on the river.

With that pot, Davies currently has the runaway chip lead with nearly four times the tournament average.
