....aaand Antonio Gets Some Back

Level 11 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

On a flop reading {Q-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{7-Spades}, Antonio Esfandiari led out from the big and was raised by his lone opponent on the button to 4,800. Esfandiari tanked for a couple minutes, but decided to slide out a call.

Both players checked when the {9-Diamonds} fell on the turn. However, when the {5-Hearts} completed the board, Esfandiari deliberated and asked how much his opponent had behind (about 30,000) before pushing out a 13,500 bet. Esfandiari's opponent agonized for several minutes before finally announcing, "I fold," and dejectedly mucked his hand.

Esfandiari is up to 75,000.
