Wasserson Avoids Getting Scooped

Level 6 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo

Eric Wasserson: {a-Spades}{7-Spades}{3-Spades} / {6-Hearts}{10-Spades}{9-Spades}{7-Clubs}
Erik Seidel: {10-Clubs}{6-Spades}{3-Clubs} / {8-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{5-Clubs}

Erik Seidel bet all the way as of fourth street and Eric Wasserson came along. Once the cards were revealed, Seidel taböed an ace-high flush with a six low and there was very brief confusion. However, Wasserson had the slightly superior flush and secured the high portion.

"Do I look as if I get scooped by an ace-high flush and six-low?" he joked in table chat. Despite earning half the pot, Wasserson remains below half the starting stack.
