On the second day of the Super High Roller Cash Game, Antonio Esfandiari proved that "The Magician" still knows how to work his magic. In a crazy hand, he faced off against Alan Keating, resulting in a staggering $2,441,000 pot! The tension was palpable, not just at the table, but also for viewers caught up in the live broadcast. You can watch the entire episode here:
The hand that caught everyone's attention unfolded on the flop 9 d 8 c 6 s, giving Esfandiari a top set with 9 s 9 h. Rather than following a standard line, Esfandiari responded to Keating's $75k bet with a bold move: a check-raise all-in for $1,084,000! Keating eventually called with 8 h 7 d, leaving both players to face two boards. How did it turn out?
HOLY S*$% @MISTER_KEATING IS ONE OF THE SICKEST GAMBLERS OF ALL TIME
