Esfandiari Moves Up

The first player to act on the flop of {9-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{2-Hearts} fired out a bet of 1,225. The next player in the hand folded before action fell on Antonio Esfandiari. He fired in a raise to 3,300 and was called.

The turn brought the {3-Diamonds} and completed a possible diamond flush. The first player led out again, betting 3,000 this time. Esfandiari raised to 8,000 and his opponent folded, allowing "The Magician" to move to 44,000 chips.
