Left in the Deck: Seiver Has a Future In Curling After passing by Scott Seiver’s table, we overheard him talking with David Bach about making a run at the U.S. Olympic Curling team. “I have alot of bowling experience,” said Bach. “That should give me an edge.” “It probably does, we would just have to figure out who is going to sweep,” replied Seiver. There was a joking tone, but it wouldn’t surprise us to see those two on the ice in four years.

Richard Ashby – 2,100,000 Notable Eliminations: none Big Hands:
Razz Ian Gordon was down to 300,000 after losing back to back omaha 8 or better hands. Then this razz hand came along. Gordon: (X-X)-4-K-9 Ian Gordon was the bring-in with a four and Richard Ashby completed and was called by Gordon. Ashby bet out on fourth and was called by Gordon. Ashby bet on fifth even though he open paired and Gordon moved all-in for just 35,000 more. Ashby called and showed 9-6 in the hole and Gordon showed 8-5 and was in the lead. Ashby caught on ace on sixth and Gordon caught a 7. Ashby squeezed his last card, but turned up a pair of sixes, meaning that Gordon’s K on the river was meaningless and he wold double up to 600,000. Razz is Rough on Crazy Marco Marco Johnson was in two razz hands that left him fairly short. In a hand against Eugene Katchalov, he completed and bet fourth street, before calling fifth and sixth street, but had to fold the river.

Johnson was left with just 430,000. Johnson Doubles Marco Johnson: (X-X)-5 Johnson completed and Ashby called. Ashby checked and called a bet from Johnson on fourth and fifth street, but wanted to lead out into Johnson on sixth until Matt Glantz stopped him to tell him that Johnson had paired his five and acts first. Johnson bet and was left with just 35,000. Ashby seemed confused and eventually called. Johnson bet his last 35,000 in the dark and Ashby tossed in a call in the dark. Johnson showed K
Stud Marco Johnson completed and Matt Glantz made the call. Johnson bet fourth and Glantz called. Johnson led again on fifth and Glantz announced a raise. Johnson made the call and led into Glantz on sixth street. Glantz just called and they saw the river with their boards looking like this. Johnson: (X-X)-Q Johnson checked and Glantz appeared to squeeze his river card and then fired out a bet.
