Being Seif is Better Than Being Rich

On a flop of {A-Clubs}{Q-Spades}{8-Hearts}, Jordan Rich bets 1,200 and was called by Mark Seif. Both players checked the {7-Clubs} on the turn.

When the {4-Clubs} hit on the river, Rich bet 4,200 and Seif instantaneously throws in a stack of yellow chips, worth 1,000 each. There turned out to be 20 yellow chips, meaning a raise of 15,800.

Rich removed his headphones and asked, "Are you serious?"

"No," replied Seif, "I'm just kidding."

Rich made the call only to find out that Seif had his a flush with the {5-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. With that hand, Seif is up to 62,000 while Rich drops to 31,000.
