All Hail Cesaro

A short-stacked George Leandrou of Astoria, New York got all in preflop only to be called and dominated by Stephen Cesaro.

Showdown
Cesaro: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}
Leandrou: {A-Hearts}{9-Spades}

The {8-Spades}{3-Spades}{5-Clubs} flop gave Leandrou some runner-runner flush options, but the {7-Hearts} took that away. With that said, he did pick up a gut-shot straight draw, though it failed to materialize as the {Q-Diamonds} appeared on the river.

"Nice hand," Leandrou said before taking his leave. Meanwhile, Cesaro flashed a big smile to what appeared to be his girlfriend on the rail.
