Seiver Slips, Slides Out in 35th

Scott Seiver
Scott Seiver

A short-stacked Scott Seiver found himself nearly all in before the flop in a hand versus Richard Alsup, then contributed the rest of his stack following a {10-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{4-Clubs} flop.

Alsup turned over {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts} and Seiver {A-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}. "All right!" said Seiver, sounding equally sincere and sarcastic. Actually he might have been more than half-sincere, as he observed to his neighbor Dan Shak he was "like 80% to chop."

"Just watch," he added hopefully.

The turn brought the {2-Clubs} and the river the {K-Diamonds}. "See? It's a chop," Seiver grinned. Alas, his creative interpretation of the board didn't sway the dealer, and the last of his chips went Alsup's way.
