Scott Seiver Eliminated in 17th Place ($28,675)

When we came to Table 451, there was a flop showing {5-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} {7-Hearts} and Scott Seiver, Greg Mueller and Benjamin Reinhart were all involved in the hand. It was on Reinhart first and he opted to check. Mueller then did the same and the action was sent to Seiver.

A bet of 100,000 from Seiver would see Reinhart quickly move all in. Mueller didn't seem to have much to think about as he sent his cards in the muck. Seiver's cards however would not join Mueller's, they would instead be turned over face up as Seiver made a quick call.

Seiver: {q-Clubs} {q-Spades}
Reinhart: {10-Spades} {9-Hearts}

At this point the chip stacks were very close, so it was hard to tell who had the most chips, but either way someone was going to be going home or be left very crippled.

The {4-Hearts} on the turn was safe for Seiver as he would need to dodge an six or jack on the river. Unfortunately the {j-Clubs} was the last card dealt and Seiver would lose the hand.

After counting the stacks out, it was discovered that Reinhart had slightly more than Seiver and therefore Seiver would be exiting the tournament in 17th place.
