Seidel Looming Large

Erik Seidel
Erik Seidel
Erik Seidel is one of the big names in the poker world and he's looming as a giant force in this tournament after recently sending an opponent to the rail.

We caught the action on a flop of {10-Spades}{7-Hearts}{9-Clubs} where Seidel called the all in shove of his opponent.

Seidel tabled {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs} for a set as his opponent revealed {J-?}{10-?} for top pair and gutshot straight draw.

The turn was the {4-Clubs} and river the {6-Hearts} and Seidel takes down a very nice pot to move up to 130,000 chips.
