Championship: Hands #1-7

Seminole Hard Rock Poker Open Championship (Freeze-Out)
Level 26: 30,000/60,000/10,000 Ante

Hand #1  –  Because the big blind busted in the final hand last night, there will be no small blind for this first hand.

Defending champion Dan Colman has yet to arrive, so he will be blinded out in the meantime.

Everyone folds to Randy Pfeifer, giving him a walk in the big blind.
