Christoph Vogelsang opened to 65,000 from under the gun and Talal Shakerchi called in the cutoff. Jason Koon three-bet to 265,000 from the button.

2012 Big One for One Drop champion Antonio Esfandiari then four-bet to 1,025,000 from the big blind and both Vogelsang and Shakerchi got out of the way.

Koon used up one of his time extensions before five-betting all in for 3,870,000, covering Esfandiari. Esfandiari called and was all in.

Jason Koon: {k-Spades}{k-Hearts}
Antonio Esfandiari: {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs}

Esfandiari was dominated and the board came {6-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} and Esfandiari was eliminated.
