Seidel Flushed Away in Massive Pot
Level 6
: 2,500/5,000, 500 ante
Phil Ivey raised to 11,000 from middle position and Byron Kaverman called from the button. Erik Seidel then three-bet to 38,000 from the small blind, Ivey got out of the way, and Kaverman called to see a 
flop.
Seidel led out for 42,000, Kaverman raised to 87,000, and Seidel thought for awhile before moving all in for 232,500 total. Kaverman called.
Kaverman: 
Seidel: 
Kaverman flopped top pair with a flush draw, but Seidel was out in front with pocket queens. The 
turn was of no consequence, but the 
river was. Kaverman spiked his flush, and after the stacks were verified Seidel exited the tournament floor.
