Seidel Bests Viera
Level 10
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Erik Seidel opened to 35,000 from under the gun and was faced with a three-bet to 110,000 by Joao Vieira in middle position. Action folded back around to Seidel, who chose to call to send the two players heads-up to the flop.
On the 
flop Seidel checked and then called when Viera continued for 90,000.
Both players checked through the 
turn to the 
river where Seidel took over the betting lead, firing off 225,000. Viera seemed tempted to call but eventually thought better of it and mucked his holding.
