Seif Tells the Truth

A player in middle position raised to 1,700 and Seif makes the call from the button. The flop comes {10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}{Q-Hearts} and the original bettor leads out for 3,000. Seif raises to 8,000, prompting his opponent to ask, "Do you have queen-jack?"

The question led Seif to start talking about the hands that he could have. "I could have five-six," he said, "Its possible I could have a five-six with no club."

"No, you don't have that," responded the original bettor before throwing his hand in the muck.

Lo and beold, Seif shows {5-Spades}{6-Diamonds}.
