Seiver Doubles Through Esfandiari

Level 6 : 3,000/6,000, 500 ante

With the board reading {9-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{Q-Spades}, big blind Antonio Esfandiari bet 63,000. Scott Seiver, playing under the gun, called. Byron Kaverman on the button folded.

The river {A-Clubs} saw Esfandiari toss in three 100,000-chips to put Seiver all in. Seiver called instantly for his last 104,000 as he had just rivered gin with {A-Hearts}{A-Diamonds}. Esfandiari's {10-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} proved no good anymore. Despite doubling Seiver, Esfandiari is still playing 1.1 million.
