Esposito talked Into Showing

Just before the break, Cory Zeidman and Lou Esposito were involved in a pot that went to the river. The board was {6-Spades} {5-Spades} {4-Spades} {J-Clubs} {7-Spades}.

On the turn, Zeidman bet 2,100 and Esposito called. On the river, Zeidman checked and Esposito bet 4,000.

"I had you before that card man," said Zeidman and then proceeded to ask Esposito to show his hand.

"I don't like to show," responded Esposito.

"I'll show you one later if you show me now," promised Zeidman.

After Zeidman and the table talked to Esposito a little more to try and convince him to show, Zeidman showed the {J-Spades} {10-Clubs} for further persuasion.

Esposito laughed and then showed {A-Spades} {8-Spades} for a straight flush.
