Seidel Spikes a Two-Outer on Grafton
Level 7
: 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Morten Klein raised to 10,000 in the cutoff before Sam Grafton three-bet to 35,000 in the small blind. Erik Seidel then four-bet to 85,000 from the big blind and Klein got out of the way.
Grafton used up two time banks before he moved all in. Seidel then burned through several of his time banks and eventually called for 256,000.
Erik Seidel: J?J?
Sam Grafton: A?A?
Seidel was crushed by Grafton's aces as the board came 5?8?5?9?, leaving the Poker Hall of Famer one card away from elimination. The river, though, came the J? and Seidel hit a full house to double up.
"I shaved off the mustache just to avoid that," Grafton joked before heading off on break.
