Seidel Gets There
Level 11
: 1,500/3,000, 400 ante
The flop read 
when Jonathan Karamalikis checked to Erik Seidel who bet 6,500. Karamalikis check-raised to 14,500 and Seidel decided to move all in for 51,000. Karamalikis called immediately and turned over 
. Seidel had 
for a flush draw and got there when the board ran out 
, 
.
So Seidel stays alive while Karamalikis' stack was seriously dented. Both players are now around the average stack.
