Grafton Doubles Through Seiver

Level 11 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Sam Grafton
Sam Grafton

Scott Seiver raised to 40,000, then got shoved on by Sam Grafton for 130,000.

The action folded around to Seiver who called.

Sam Grafton: {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}
Scott Seiver: {k-Spades}{10-Spades}

The {k-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{6-Clubs} flop brought Seiver a king, but the {a-Clubs} turn gave Grafton a hammerlock on the hand, which was ended with the {9-Clubs} on the river.

Grafton is back to about a starting stack, while Seiver is on fumes.

Sam Grafton moved all-in preflop and was called by Christoph Vogelsang.

The dealer ran out the board of {9-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{4-Spades} and things ended just as they began, with Vogelsang ahead, and Grafton was eliminated from the tournament.

In a battle of the blinds and on a board of {10-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{j-Clubs} Brian Rast fired out a bet of 45,000 chips and was called by Dylan Linde.

The dealer dealt the river card {k-Diamonds} and Rast slowed down and checked. Next, after some thought, Linde placed out one 100k chip into the middle. After a few moments, Rast opted to call and mucked after Linde tabled the winner with his {j-Spades}{6-Spades} for a full house, jacks full of kings, and was awarded the pot.
