Seiver reacted as if he had the best hand, and then let out a chuckle when the flop fell . According to him, he had held . Unfortunately for him, he didn't make the call and it would be Bonomo who would win the pot as the turn and river completed the board.
That left Sheikh with just 3,000 in chips, and two hands later the 2,000 he had left went in. Three other players created a side pot and then checked the flop. Seiver proceeded to bet 9,000 on the turn, both his opponents folded, and the cards were tabled:
