Jeremiah Fitzpatrick folded his button and Craig McCorkell moved all in from the small blind. Antonio Esfandiari called in the big blind and the hands were turned over.
McCorkell:
Esfandiari:
McCorkell found a pair on the flop and Esfandiari was looking for a king or a jack. The drilled the turn, giving McCorkell the winning hand with fours full of fives and the on the river was just like pouring salt in the wound for Esfandiari.
As McCorkell raked in his new found chips, the Brits railing him went absolutely insane stomping their feet and screaming in support.
With Antonio Esfandiari having nearly 75% of the chips in play, Craig McCorkell and Jeremiah Fitzgerald have either been shoving or folding against Esfandiari. We don't remember a hand the McCorkell and Fitzgerald have played against each other since three-handed play began.
It's just a matter of time before Esfandiari picks up a hand to call with.
The British rail must have been in line for drinks when we resumed play, because they are back as strong as ever. They may even be rowdier than before.
Tournament staff has asked them several times to quiet down while a hand is in play out of respect for the players.
Antonio Esfandiari Celebrating After Eliminating Jon Lane and Taking Massive Chip Lead
Since Antonio Esfandiari has the remaining two players so outchipped at this point, the tournament has become an all in fest. A majority of the hands have either Esfandiari moving the short stacks all in or the short stacks shoving.
With the flop reading , Jonathan Lane bet out only to find a raise from Antonio Esfandiari. Lane three-bet the action to 850,000 and Antonio four-bet all in. Lane, the second biggest stack at the table who is bested only by Esfandiari made the call for his tournament life:
Esfandiari:
Lane:
Antonio flopped the nut straight while Lane flopped the low end. The dealer showed the two the on the turn and Esfandiari's arms slowly raised up in the air as he ran to his rail to give out high fives. The completed the board and just like that Lane was sent home and Esfandiari has a dominating chip lead over the rest of the field.
Since security escorted some of the members of the British rail off the stage before the break, there is a much quieter and smaller rail in attendance.
