Seiver Drowns on the River
Level 9
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
"All in and a call," we heard a dealer announce. We made our way over just in time to discover Scott Seiver flipping for his tournament life against Amit Makhija.
Seiver: 
Makhija: 
According to the PokerNews Odds Calculator, Seiver had a 56.65% chance of surviving the hand and Makhija would win 42.95% of the time. The 
flop kept Seiver firmly in the lead and increased his chances of winning to 75.25%, while the 
turn pushed it up to 86.36%. All Seiver needed to do was dodge a king and ace on the river to double, but he couldn't do it as the 
spiked.
Seiver shook hands with Makhija and then made a beeline toward the exit.
