With the bolt out, the slots straight and the seatpost in, there is a gap around the seatpost.
It's the wrong size, no doubt about it.
The seatpost should snug to the tube when it is open like that with the slot straight.
A larger one may not fit in now as the tube has probably been ovalised or distorted by the over tightening on the small post.
