More Love for Esposito

Big stack Ed Jatho is first into the pot on the button, and he turns up the heat with a raise to 22,000. Lou Esposito makes the call from the small blind, and we go heads-up to the flop.

The dealer deals out the {5-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{9-Hearts} for the first three community cards, and both players check.

The turn pairs the board, {9-Clubs}. Esposito wastes no time pushing 24,000 into the raiser. Jatho obliges him with the call.

The river is the {3-Clubs}, and again both players check. Jatho turns over 2-2, while Esposito smoothly shows his {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}, and takes down another sizable pot.

Esposito was in the danger zone earlier, but has now climbed back up around average, with close to 150,000.
