Seidel Avoids Elimination on the Stone Bubble
Level 17
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Tom Orpaz opened to 80,000 from the button and Erik Seidel moved all in for his last 295,000. Orpaz made the call with a covering stack.
Erik Seidel: A♠5♠
Tom Orpaz: A♣J♥
Seidel got exactly what he needed with a pair of fives on the 2♦4♠5♦ flop. He faded all of Orpaz' outs to either win or chop the pot when the turn and river came 9♥7♥ to receive a full double up.
