$10,000 WPT Seminole Hard Rock Finale
Level 11: 1,000/2,000 with a 300 Ante
Players Remaining: 135 of 349
Two former Seminole Hard Rock Poker Showdown Championship winners were sitting next to each other and went to battle after the break.
Eric Afriat (2014 champ) opened to 11,500 from the cutoff and Taylor von Kriegenbergh (2011 champ) raised to 60,000 from the button, leaving only 5,700 behind.
Afriat put a stack forward, enough to cover von Kriegenbergh, and the 2011 winner laughed/pump faked a fold before calling.
Afriat:
von Kriegenbergh:
Afriat was ahead for the knockout and von Kriegenbergh added a tiny gutshot Broadway draw on the flop. The turn was no help to von Kriegenbergh and he was eliminated after the river.
Eric Afriat – 207,000 (104 bb)
Taylor von Kriegenbergh – Eliminated
