Esfandiari Wins Huge Pot
Antonio Esfandiari opened for 425 and a player in the small blind re-raised to 1,125. The big blind folded and Antonio decided to call.
The flop read 
and The Magician called his opponent's c-bet of 925.
The turn came a 
and the small blind fired again, this time for 1,675. Esfandiari again called.
The 
completed the board and the player in the big blind fired one last barrel for 3,225. Esfandiari counted out a call and contemplated his options for about a minute, but then announced "Pot. I'm all in," for a littler over 10,000.
His opponent fell hard into the tank and agonized for several minutes. Someone (we're not sure who) called the clock and Esfandiari's opponent finally announced, "Call."
The Magician tabled the 
for the rivered straight and his opponent mucked.
"How do you shove there?" he said.
"I dunno. I had a straight. You're supposed to raise when you make a straight," Esfandiari replied.
The Magician is now among the chip leaders with 28,000.
