Tim Seidensticker moved all in UTG+1 for 305,000, and Randy Pfeifer called from the big blind with Ac2s. Seidensticker turned over Kh10c, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came Jc9d8s10dJs, and Seidensticker paired his ten on the turn to win the pot and double up in chips.

Tim Seidensticker  –  670,000  (13 bb)
Randy Pfeifer  –  7,575,000  (152 bb)

After the hand, Pfeifer said, “I don’t mind you doubling up, but could you please pick on somebody besides me for a change?”

A couple minutes later, Dan Colman raised UTG+1 to 105,000, Tim Seidensticker moved all in from the hijack for 565,000, and Colman called with AsJs. Seidensticker turned over KsQs, and he needed to improve to stay alive.

The board came Kd6c2h3h2s, and Seidensticker paired his king on the flop to win the pot and double up in chips — again.

Tim Seidensticker  –  1,240,000  (25 bb)
Dan Colman  –  2,930,000  (59 bb)
