Level 8: Blinds 500/1,000, Ante 100
Players Remaining: 90/156
Average Stack – (~52,000 – 52 bb)

Picking up the action after the turn of a board reading Qd2hAh10d, the player under the gun check-called 3,600 from 2013 Deep Stack Series Main Event Champion Sheddy Siddiqui in the hijack to see the Ks river. The UTG player checked to Siddiqui again and this time he bet what looked to be about 7,900. His opponent check-raised to 25,000, Siddiqui immediately reraised to effectively 77,000-ish, and the UTG player folded.

With that pot, Siddiqui is up to about 207,000 and is among the biggest stacks in the room.
