Tricky Trickett

Antonio Esfandiari raised to 725 and it folded all of the way around to Sam Trickett who called from the big blind. The flop was and Trickett checked. Esfandiari continued out for 1,000 and Tricket slid out a check-raise to 2,600. Esfandiari called.

The turned and Trickett led for 3,600. Esfandiari called once again and the hit the river. Trickett fired 8,600.

"Oh, tricky Trickett," said Esfandiari. "I invited you into my home...I took you to the spa..." he trailed off.

Esfandiari eventually flung out a call. Trickett rolled over for a turned flush and Esfandiari flung his cards to the muck. Trickett is now up to 63,000 while Esfandiari has been crippled at about 7,000.
