Size Matters?

Level 3 : 150/300, 25 ante

After a raise and three callers the action just folded to Charlie Carrel who three-bet from the small blind to 5,600. Former NFL star Richard Seymour was next to act from the big blind, and he found himself staring down Carrel for a solid minute before folding his hand.

As Seymour stared down Carrel, who's likely about the size of a three-course meal for the three-time Super Bowl winner, the young British pro stared right back at him. After Carrel's three-bet got through, giving him the pot uncontested, a funny back and forth started.

"That was intense, wasn't it?" Carrel smiled to Seymour.

Seymour cracked a smile and acknowledged the intensity, but we're pretty sure he's been in much more intense moments over his playing career.

"In the moment I completely forgot about my hand," Carrel said, "It made me realize my size."

Mike McDonald laughed, as Carrel is indeed about the half the size of Seymour.
