: 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

On a river board of and over 100,000 in the pot, Tim Seidensticker, who spent a good portion of Day 1 near the top of the chip counts placed a bet of 53,000 from the small blind which represented most of his opponent, Blake Napierala's stack.
After a couple of minutes of thought, Napierala put out calling chips to see the bad news.
Seidensticker showed for a rivered wheel.
Napierala mucked his hand and squeezed his remaining chips tightly in frustration at losing the critical hand which has left him on a short stack.
