Seaton Avoids the Bubble
Level 17
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Three tables were involved in the bubble, with someome at risk on each.
Action folded around to the small blind who limped pre-flop and Archibald Seaton checked from the big blind.
The 3♠9♥K♠ flop was when the small blind moved all in, putting the pressure on Seaton who was sitting with a much shorter stack. Seaton made the call and play was paused without the cards showing whilst other tables were still playing. Once it got down to three tables who were all in, the players flipped their cards.
Archibald Seaton: Q♦K♥
Small Blind: 5♥8♦
The small blind needed to hit both the turn and the river to win the hand and the A♥K♦ runout gave Seaton the double and he avoided busting on the bubble.
