Esfandiari Chips Up

With a raise to 300 and a call before him, Antonio Esfandiari made the call from the button.

On the flop of {J-Spades}{2-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} the original raiser checked, before the caller made it 1,100 to go. Esfandiari put in a raise to 3,400 to take the pot down and climb to 32,400.

With eight WSOP cashes to his name, but no Main Event one to his name, Esfandiari will be looking at making 2009 his year to break his drought.
