It was a wild ride for Jan Suchanek so far as he saw the stack cut short, then doubled and just now knocked out Danny Seow.
Seow check-called a bet of 4,350 out of the small blind on the flop and check-shoved the turn which Suchanek called.
Danny Seow:
Jan Suchanek:
The river was a meaningless as Seow became one of the early casualties.
