Jesse Sylvia opened to 27,000 and was called by Abraham Korotki and Maurice Hawkins. Scott Eskenazi moved all in for 116,000 total which was enough to get Sylvia and Korotki to fold. Hawkins decided to call with {A-Diamonds}{10-Clubs} and was racing against Eskenazi's {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}.

The flop came {Q-Clubs}{9-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} and Hawkins asked the dealer for a club so that he could have a sweat.

The turn was the {4-Clubs}.

"There you go," said Hawkins. "Now bang it out."

The river was the {J-Diamonds} and Hawkins was unable to improve and Eskenazi wins the pot. "I thought you were rooting for me," Eskenazi said after the hand, a sly smile on his face.
