Becomes the fifth guy to win 8 behind Hellmuth, Chan, Brunson and Moss. Not bad company.

Time to re-shoot that Full Tilt commercial with Howard Lederer showing off his 2 bracelets before Seidel swept in with 7. Didn't Seidel also bust Johnny Chan in this tourney? I'm a fan of Johnny Can but this must be a sweet victory for Seidel.

Congrats to Seidel. The guy is sickly good and would be hella famous if he wanted to be. It's my understandind that he tries very hard to avoid the same things someone like Helmuth goes out of his way to attain.

ESPN did one of the first holecard cam final tables at the Taj USPC. Seidel was at that table and it is absolutely hysterical. He wouldn't show his cards to the cam so they kept adding cams in front of him until there were 3 or 4 behind his chips. Even then most hands they got a peek at one card only most hands. He was absolutely opposed to exposing his cards and even stated he might stop playing tourneys where they were in use.
