Erik Seidel wins event 54 and an 8th bracelet.

Hand #174 - Chad Brown has the button, he raises to 250,000, and Seidel calls. Seidel draws two cards, and Brown draws one. Seidel bets 250,000, Brown moves all in for 600,000, and Seidel calls. Brown shows 9-7-5-3-2, but Seidel wins the hand -- and the bracelet -- with 8-7-6-5-3.

Chad Brown is eliminated in second place, earning $324,777.

Erik Seidel wins Event #54 ($5,000 No-Limit 2-7 Draw Lowball w/Rebuys), earning $538,835, a Corum watch, and his *eighth* wsop bracelet.

Erik Seidel is just the fifth person in history to reach the milestone.

Congrats Mr Seidel.

Whoa, nice catch Eric - drew 2 and hit an 8 high

Nice win for Eric, also big congrats to Ram Vaswani who finally won his first bracelet winning Event 53 ($1,500 LHE Shootout)

A great win for a terrific player. Besides Brunson, Chan and Hellmuth, who are the other 4 w.8 or more bracelets?
