Seidel Loses Some More
Level 5
: 200/400, 50 ante
With roughly 2,000 in the pot and a flop of 
, Erik Seidel checked from the small blind and the player in the big did the same. A middle-position player followed suit, and then the player in the cutoff bet 1,100. Seidel called, the big blind folded, and the middle-position player called to see the 
turn.
Seidel opted to lead out for 2,500, the middle-position player folded, and the cutoff called to see the 
river, which both players checked.
Seidel showed the 
for a flopped pair of fives, but it was no good as his opponent held the 
for a flush draw on the flop that turned into a winning pair.
