VIDEO: Antonio Esfandiari and the Year’s Biggest Cooler in High Stakes Poker

Antonio Esfandiari, known as “The Magician,” made a thrilling appearance in the new High Stakes Poker series with a hand sure to be talked about for a long time. Viewers witnessed a brutal cooler where escape was impossible, resulting in a massive $824,500 pot!

It all kicked off when Sameh Elamaway opened with $5,000 holding A s A h. Esfandiari called with 8 s 8 c, and Justin Gavri joined from the big blind with J c 7 c. The flop 6 s 8 h 8 d gave Esfandiari quads, but surprisingly, the action checked around. The turn was an unforgiving A d, turning Elamaway’s aces into a doomed full house.

The river 3 d changed nothing, and everyone knew this hand was heading to an all-in showdown. The result? An $824,500 pot was shipped to Esfandiari – one of the biggest coolers High Stakes Poker has showcased recently. Elamaway essentially lost to a one-outer, while Esfandiari demonstrated his trademark timing, composure, and knack for letting opponents set up their own downfall.
