Esterling's Shove Gets Through; Zambanini Makes Hero Call

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Matthew Zambanini

Matthew Dillon raised on the button and Jeffrey Esterling three-bet shoved all in from the small blind, putting himself at risk. Dillon thought for a moment, but eventually folded.

The next hand, Matthew Zambanini raised from under the gun and was three-bet by Daniel Lim in middle position. Zambanini called and the flop came J42.

Zambanini check-called a bet of 3,000, bringing the 10 turn which went check-check.

On the 3 river, Zambanini checked again and Lim fired out a bet of 12,800, prompting Zambanini to count out his chips. After some consideration, Zambanini flicked in the call and tabled A2 for a pair of deuces, besting the AQ of Lim.
