In a hand made for prime time, Steve Seidman went all-in with pocket tens and was called by pocket sevens. When a seven fell on the flop, Seidman saw his tournament life flash before his eyes... until everyone realized that the dealer had put out a four-card flop in error. Seidman called the floor for a ruling on what to do about the flop. When the floor staff arrived, everyone at the table pointed out that it was quite obvious that the seven was part of the three-card flop, regardless of the dealer's mistake.
However, it was ruled for the cards to be reshuffled and a new flop dealt, much to the chagrin of the player holding pocket sevens. Of course, Seidman didn't feel any better than before when the new flop also brought a seven. His mood improved dramatically when he managed to go runner-runner for a flush to double through his opponent.
