Large Chuck of The Magicians Stack Disappears

Level 7 : 200/400, 0 ante

We caught up with the action after a huge pot had already brewed.

On a board reading {K-Spades}{6-Clubs}{9-Spades}{7-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}, a player in middle position bet all-in for his last 14,000. His lone oppponent, Antonio Esfandiari, fell hard into the tank. The Magician looked as if he were about to muck, but then verbally announced a call. His opponent tabled {A-Spades}{K-Clubs} for top top and Esfandiari mucked his hand.

With that hand, Esfandiari has slipped to 14,500.
