Seidel Trying to Get to Par

[user75032]

Erik Seidel started the day in 20th place out of 21 players. He's now threatening to chip up to an average stack with 12 players to go after doubling through Jeremy Harkin. Seidel opened for 40,000, then called all in for 123,000 total after Harkin re-raised. Harkin called with {a-Hearts} {9-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {3-Clubs} , not the greatest hand to take against Seidel's {a-Spades} {k-Clubs} {9-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} . Seidel made trip kings on the flop, {5-Spades} {k-Hearts} {k-Spades} , then had a relatively easy turn and river with the {j-Diamonds} and {8-Hearts} . He doubled up to about 250,000.
