Esfandiari Loses "Side Pot"

Level 12 : 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Antonio Esfandiari is running better in the tournament than he is in side bets.

Sorel Mizzi just sauntered into the tournament area and engaged Antonio Esfandiari in a "flip for $5,000." Esfandiari anointed neighbor Amit Makhija to do the honors, picking out two hundos from a stack of bills. Each player was given one of the bills, and the two slowly peeked down at the serial numbers one by one, turning it into a poker hand. Esfandiari began swearing halfway through the sweat, and sure enough, he pulled out some casino chips and shipped them to an ecstatic Mizzi. Mizzi turned down Esfandiari's offer for double or nothing.

Stein threw in his chips, for a total of 48,000, and the cards were turned face up.

Stammen:

The board ran out and Stammen raked in this pot.

Level 11 : 800/1,600, 0 ante

Kathy Liebert mercilessly tossed her last 5,600 in the middle before the flop and Tony Cousineau made the call from the big blind knowing he was likely behind.

It was for Liebert against for Cousineau, but he picked up a flush draw on the flop. It materialized on the turn and Liebert left after the river.
