Seidel Avoids Deng's Trap
Level 2
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Clemen Deng opened the action with a raise to 2,500 in middle position, which was called by Erik Seidel on the button and Talal Shakerchi in the big blind.
The flop came 8♦A♥8♣ and it was checked to Seidel who bet out 3,000. Shakerchi quickly mucked and Deng made the call.
Both players checked after the K♥ on the turn and 4♦ on the river. Deng then tabled A♠A♦ for a flopped full house, aces full eights. Seidel laughed as he tossed his cards in the muck to give the pot to Deng.
