Eslami Increases Lead
Level 23
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
From the button, Ali Eslami raised to 24,000, a minimum raise. D.J. Blanchard had the small blind and three-bet to 68,000. After Tim West folded from the big blind, Eslami went into the tank for a little bit. He then made the call.
The flop 
and both players checked to see the 
fall on the turn. Blanchard checked again and Eslami fired 85,000. Blanchard gave it up and Eslami won the pot.
