Seif Getting Crafty

We found a limp pot at Table 98 between Mark Seif in the cut off, the button, and both the binds. After the big blind gave the approval to see a flop the dealer put out three cards the {J-Spades}{8-Clubs}{J-Hearts}. The small blind put a bet out a bet of 700 right off the bat, and Seif was the only one willing to call.

On a {5-Clubs} turn the small blind again bet, this time making it 1,300. Seif called fairly quickly and both players got to see the river.

After the {10-Spades} was spiked on the river both players checked and flipped their cards. The small blind held {A-}{10-} for a river two pair, jacks and tens. Seif however was holding {A-}{A-} for a higher two pair.
