Stacey Fails to Chip Himself Up

A short-stacked Dwayne Stacey moved all in preflop for about 300,000. Antonio Esfandiari, not gun-shy after his previous confrontation with Wesley Ismay, quickly called with {9-Spades} {9-Diamonds}. He was flipping against Stacey's {K-Spades} {J-Hearts}.

"Two high pair would be good," Stacey offered. He instead got the worst possible flop -- {9-Hearts} {A-Hearts} {Q-Diamonds}. Esfandiari caught a set while Stacey caught nothing, drawing only to a ten or running hearts. Stacey was eliminated after the turn fell {6-Diamonds} and river came {A-Clubs} to give Esfandiari a full house.
