Esfandiari Busts, Chen First Player in Round of 8

Tommy Chen

Things moved fast in the match between Antonio Esfandiari and Tommy Chen. We just saw a {A-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{9-Spades} flop when Antonio Esfandiari moved all in. Chen double checked his cards and quickly made the call showing {A-Spades}{3-Clubs}. Esfandiari was in trouble showing {6-Diamonds}{2-Spades} and he lost this bullet when the turn brought the {A-Hearts} and the river the {6-Hearts}.

Esfandiari cashed in his final lammer and just a few hands later the match was over. Esfandiari raised to 8,000 from the button and Chen made it 28,000 from the big blind. Esfandiari shoved all in and Chen snap-called tabling {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}. Esfandiari showed {A-}{Q-} and the board ran out {J-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}{6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{7-Spades} busting him from the tournament.

There are still seven matches in progress and Tommy Chen will play against the winner of the match between Chris Moore and Paul Volpe.
