Shortly after being moved to table 11, Erik Seidel managed to double through Dan Shak. Here's how it went down:

On a board showing {Q-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

{3-Spades}

{2-Diamonds}

, Shak moved all in and had Seidel covered. Seidel made the call for his last 20,000 chips and turned over {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{Q-Spades}

for top pair, top kicker. Shak tabled {4-Diamonds}

{4-Diamonds}

{6-Diamonds}

for both flush and inside straight draws.

The turn and river brought no help to either player and Seidel's queens held up, bringing his chip count to 48,000. Shak dropped to 4,500 on the hand.
