Esfandiari Clipped

Antonio Esfandiari

Catching the action on the turn with the board reading {A-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} Antonio Esfandiari called a 6,300-chip bet from his opponent.

When the river landed the {5-Hearts}, his opponent checked, opening the door up to Esfandiari to fire 15,025 at the pot.

His opponent sat in the tank for near on four minutes before making the call.

Esfandiari tapped the table and said "nice hand, I missed" and tabled his {K-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for a busted straight and flush-draw. His opponent proudly tabled his {A-Spades}{10-Spades} to take the pot as Esfandiari slipped to 41,200 in chips.
