Aldemir:
The flop gave Aldemir a set, but it also provided Watson an open-ended straight draw. The turn was of no consequence, but the river was as Watson spiked one of his outs to crack the set.
We got just the tail end of a big hand between Mike Watson and David Peters, but the latter was kind enough to fill us in afterward on what had happened.
Watson opened the pot with a raise and David Peters right next to him was the only caller. Both of them checked on and the hit the turn. Watson checked again and called Peters' bet of 26,000.
The river saw Watson check for the third time. Peters shoved for about 130,000 effectively into a pot of around 150,000.
With around 100,000 in the pot and a board reading , Timothy Adams checked from the small blind and then called when Dario Sammartino bet 49,000 from the big.
When the completed the board on the river, Adams checked again and Sammartino moved all in for 145,000. Adams hit the tank for a good while, which wound up costing him two time bank chips, before eventually folding.
Erik Seidel opened the hijack for 18,000 and small blind Dan Colman and big blind David Peters called. The two blinds checked to Seidel on and he bet 27,000. Colman check-raised to 75,000 and Peters was quick to fold. Seidel shoved for 223,000 total and Colman snap called.
Erik Seidel:
Dan Colman:
Seidel was trailing and needed runner-runner to stay alive. He got exactly that as the turn and river filled him up to a better full house and Colman was left with just 23,000.
