Rollercoaster Continues for Epstein

Level 7 : 0/0, 800 ante
Alex Epstein
Alex Epstein

There was another three-way all in involving Alex Epstein who was all-in with {q-Clubs}{q-Spades}. However, he had run into the {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs} of Liu Jiaxiu. Manig Loeser was also involved as the short stack with {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}.

The flop came {9-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}. Epstein called for a jack and duly received one on the {j-Spades} turn. The river {8-Clubs} completed his straight and he doubled up.

"Come on!" he said, celebrating his double for 110,600. "It's like I'm going in circles!"

Meanwhile, Loeser was forced to use his last add-on.
