Scott Seiver Out in 52nd; Chris Klodnicki Triples Up
Level 18: 3,000-6,000, 1,000 ante
Jennifer Harman (second from right) raises UTG+1 to 12,000, Chris Klodnicki (far right) moves all in from middle position for about 50,000, and Scott Seiver (standing, bottom left) moves all in over the top from the cutoff for about 160,000. Harman calls, covering both players.
Here are their hands, in descending order of chip counts:
Jennifer Harman: QQ
Scott Seiver: JJ
Chris Klodnicki: AK
The board comes A8262, and Klodnicki pairs his ace on the flop to win the main pot and triple up in chips. Meanwhile, Harman's queens fade Seiver's pocket jacks to win the side pot and eliminate Seiver from the tournament.
Chris Klodnicki - 158,000
Jennifer Harman - 405,000
Scott Seiver - Out in 52nd Place ($21,840)
Having just lost about 110,000 the previous hand to Scott Seiver (who flopped bottom set on an ace-high board), Nick Petrangelo moves all in the following hand from UTG+2 for 30,500. Jordan Cristos calls on the button before Scott Seiver three bets all in with the bigger stack. Cristos folds after a few moments.
Seiver: AK
Petrangelo: A2
The board falls T543Q as Seiver's ace-high flush bests Petrangelo's wheel.
Scott Seiver - 430,000 (143 bb)
Nick Petrangelo - Eliminated
The UTG+2 players limps in and Scott Seiver raises to 1,500 from middle position. Keith Lehr calls on the button, as does the limper, and the flop falls AAK.
All three players check around to see the 6 turn where it is checked to Lehr. He bets 2,000 and the UTG+2 player calls. Seiver though, check-raises to 7,000. Lehr folds after a few moments, as did the UTG+2 players.
Seiver collects the pot and shows AA for flopped quads.
