Eskeland Escapes Race With a W

2010 bracelet winner Sigurd Eskeland was all in and at risk preflop moments ago. He was racing with {a-Hearts}{q-Clubs} against an opponent's {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}.

The {q-Spades}{9-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} flop was quite fortuitous, and Eskeland was able to dodge a ten on both the turn ({6-Diamonds}} and the river ({4-Diamonds}). Eskeland is alive and well, sitting with 175,000 chips.
