Seiver Gets Paid on the River

Level 20 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Scott Seiver limped from the small blind and Richard Yong checked his option from the big. The {6-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{4-Hearts} flop saw Seiver check-call a bet of 65,000 and then both players checked the {5-Spades} turn. When the {2-Spades} completed the board on the river, Seiver led out for 200,000 and Yong called with {7-}{q-} for a straight. It was no good though as Seiver had flopped a flush with the {a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}.

Yong Gets Out Of Line, Seiver Takes Advantage

Level 20 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

He raised to 115,000 from the button and Yong called from the small blind. The {2-Spades}{j-Hearts}{q-Diamonds} flop was checked to the {2-Hearts} turn where Yong led for 110,000. Call. Yong bet another 220,000 on the {8-Clubs} river but folded when Seiver raised to 500,000.

Seiver Loses Pot and Time Break Button

Level 20 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Scott Seiver needed to use a time breaker button after Richard Yong put him in a tricky spot on the turn.

Seiver limped and Yong checked to an {8-Spades}{2-Spades}{10-Clubs} flop where no more chips went in. Seiver checked on the {j-Diamonds} turn and raised to 300 when Yong bet 100,000. Yong was having none of it though and three-bet to 800,000.

Seiver eventually folded with two seconds left of the extra time his tome breaker chips allowed.

Schemion Calls Seiver's River Bet

Level 20 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Scott Seiver raised to 115,000 from the button and Ole Schemion called from the big blind to see a flop of {6-Hearts}{4-Spades}{2-Spades}. Both players checked, as they did on the {7-Spades} turn, and then Seiver led out for 125,000 on the {4-Clubs} river. Schemion thought for a few seconds before calling, and he was glad he did as his {a-Hearts}{8-Hearts} was good against Seiver's {10-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}.
