Seidel "Rockets" Back to the Lead

Vanessa Selbst and Erik Seidel wasted little time getting the chips in the middle a second time. Selbst got her hand caught in the cookie jar a bit when her {q-Hearts}{7-Hearts} ran into Seidel's {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}. Seidel's pre-flop nuts turned into the flopped nuts, {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{8-Spades}. Selbst needed running cards to close out the match. The {j-Spades} turn gave her an inside straight draw, but that draw didn't materialize on the {q-Diamonds} river.

Seidel once again has the lead in the match.
