Seibt Stays Alive With Big Slick
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Jack Kiriakus limped in from early position and Alexander Seibt shoved 54,000 from the hijack. Once the action got back to Kiriakus, he made the call which put Seibt at risk.
Alexander Seibt: A♠K♠ 
Jack Kiriakus: A♦9♣
Seibt was in a great position to double up and his situation improved on the 5♠6♠J♦ flop as he picked up a flush draw, which removed one of Kiriakus' outs. Neither the 3♥ turn nor 6♦ river changed anything, which kept Seibt alive in the Main Event.
