The flop came down 
and action checked back to Klein. He bet 375,000 and Seidel got out of the way. Seiver called to see the 
fell on fourth street. Seiver checked for a second time and Klein followed suit.
The 
finished off the community cards, putting a straight on the board. After about 30 seconds, Seiver announced that he was all in. Suddenly, Klein was put to the test for his tournament life of about 1.95 million. He took a deep breath and slid forward a call.
Seiver rolled over

"Good call, Bill," said Antonio Esfandiari. "Everybody knew he was moving in on the river 100% of the time."
"It was your classic race!" said Seiver. "Ace-king against queens. We deserve to chop!"
Seiver now has about 2.6 million and Klein has 2.62 million.
