Seidel On the Rise Again

Level 5 : 250/500, 75 ante
Erik Seidel
Erik Seidel

Erik Seidel lost a big set-over-set pot earlier against Diego Martinez, but he's chipping up nicely again and starting to head back to where he started before that pot.

In the latest pot, there was a {4-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{6-Spades} flop and Seidel called a 3,500-bet from the player in the big blind. The turn was the {9-Diamonds} and Seidel called another bet. This time the bet was 5,500.

His opponent checked to him on the {Q-Diamonds} river and Seidel put out a bet of 15,000. He was called and Seidel opened up {6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds} for a flush. His opponent mucked and Seidel's rail started celebrating the victory.
