Esfandiari Doesn't Hold Back

Level 9 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Right after doubling up Niklas Heinecker in the biggest pot of the day Antonio Esfandiari was moved to Brendon Rubie's table. The latter just doubled up the former chip leader who's back up over six figures.

Jason Pritchard raised to 4,000 after which Esfandiari made it 10,500 to go. Rubie four-bet to 21,000 and Pritchard folded his cards. Esfandiari moved all in for 51,500 and Rubie snap-called.

Rubie: {A-Hearts}{J-Hearts}
Esfandiari: {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}

The board ran out {8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and Esfandiari doubled up.
