Level 17
: 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
Erik Seidel will have to wait another year to chase his first WSOP Main Event title. Seidel, who famously finished runner-up in this event to Johnny Chan in 1988, barely hung on with a short stack during the first level today. But the eight-time bracelet winner was just eliminated after losing a flip to Marius Pospiech.
Seidel shoved all-in for 57,000 from under the gun, and action folded to Pospiech on the button. He called, and both blinds released.
Seidel: 
Pospiech: 
"That's the best I could hope for," Seidel said as he viewed his opponent's middle pair.
The cameras sprinted over to catch the board run out 
, and the full house of Pospiech sent Seidel to the rail with his fourth career cash in this event.
