Condition Critical for Sebok

Joe Sebok has said that he hasn't had a good opening level on any day of this 2009 Main Event. Sebok needs a good opening level today if he hopes to make it to second level, but that appears less likely to happen after a confrontation with Nick Maimone.

Sebok opened to 125,000 and Maimone called from the button. On a flop of {9-Diamonds} {A-Spades} {2-Spades} Sebok had first action and bet 135,000. Maimone called. Both players checked the action down on the {3-Spades} turn and {7-Diamonds} river, with Maimone's {A-Clubs} {10-Diamonds} pair of aces taking the pot.

Sebok is down to 500,000 chips.
