Seibt Gets There on the Turn to Double
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Three-handed on a flop of A?J?8?, Alexander Seibt bet 14,000 from middle position and Allan Barnes raised to 50,000 in the cutoff. Boris Kuzmanovic folded in the big blind as action went back on Seibt. "What am I doing?" he asked himself before moving all in for 92,000 as Barnes quickly called.
Alexander Seibt: K?10? 
Allan Barnes: A?8?
Barnes was ahead with two pair, but Seibt had straight and flush draws as the J? fell on the turn to complete his flush. "Let's go! That's good for poker," he said.
Seibt still needed to dodge the river, but it came a harmless 10? and he doubled up. "I spent all break looking up how to play 12 big blinds. I have no idea how to play 30 big blinds," he added.
