Esfandiari Eliminates Another

A player on the button raised to 12,500, and Antonio Esfandiari reraised to 26,000 from the big blind. His opponent responded with an all-in shove for 124,000, and Esfandiari called.

Esfandiari showed {J-Clubs}{J-Spades} and was hoping his hand would hold versus his opponent's {A-Spades}{8-Spades}. The community cards came {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{2-Spades}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}, and another player hits the rail as the field size shrinks toward 800 players.

Esfandiari has been up and down of late, but now sits with nearly a half million chips.
