Estol Sends Tepeh Packing
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Tjan Tepeh raised 255,000 in early position, and then Manuel Estol three-bet to 675,000.
The rest of the table folded, returning action to Tepeh, who moved most of his chips with the exception of a 5,000 chip in the middle. Estol, who had Tepeh covered, re-raised to put Tepeh all in, resulting in Tepeh tossing out his remaining chip.
Tjan Tepeh: J?J? 
Manuel Estol: K?K?
The dealer ran out 10?Q?9?, giving Tepeh an open-ended straight draw, while keeping Estol’s kings in the lead.
The Q? appeared on the turn, and 7? on the river gave Estol the winning hand.
