Scott Seiver was able to notch a couple of double-ups, but his luck ran out, as he was crippled by Brian Brubaker, then eliminated by David Chiu, the same player who beat him heads up for a bracelet just three weeks ago.
In the first hand, Brubaker raised from the cutoff, and Seiver called from the small blind. Seiver drew two, while Brubaker drew one. Seiver check called a bet, then he drew one, while Brubaker patted. Seiver check called another bet, and the same drawing action occurred. This time, Seiver check folded to a bet from Brubaker.
On the next hand, Daniel Negreanu raised from the cutoff, and Seiver reraised from the button. Chiu called from the big blind, and Negreanu called as well. Seiver and Negreanu drew two, while Chiu drew one. Chiu bet out, and both players called, with Seiver calling off his last 7,000. Chiu stood pat, while Seiver drew one, and Negreanu two. Chiu bet, Negreanu called, then Chiu patted again. Both Seiver and Negreanu drew one, and Chiu bet out again.
"That good?" asked Negreanu, as he kicked his hand in, and Chiu showed

, and he got up from the table, wished everyone luck, then took off for the payout desk.
