Esfandiari Going the Wrong Way

Antonio Esfandiari
Antonio Esfandiari
Antonio Esfandiari began his day slow here at the first event of the World Series of Poker. On a board showing {8-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{A-Spades}{10-Spades}{7-Spades}, Esfandiari was faced with a decision to call a bet of 10,000. The pot was approximately 12,000, and after some thought he decided to lay his hand down.

Esfandiari dropped to 15,000 chips.
