Sands Finds the River; Esau Five-Bet Shoves
Level 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Eric Sands shoved under the gun for 1,125,000 and Jon Kyte pondered for a while in the big blind before he called.
Eric Sands: A♥Q♣
Jon Kyte: 9♥7♥
Kyte was live, and found a nine on the 2♦2♥9♣ flop to take the lead. A 10♦ on the turn left Sands one card away from the rail, but the Q♥ river kept him in the game as he paired his queen.
Just before that hand, Paul Esau five-bet shoved his stack over a Timur Margolin four-bet, which earned him the pot.
