Antonio Esfandiari popped it to 5,300 from under the gun, Jason Koon three-bet to 18,600 out of the small blind, and the Magician four-bet to 42,100. Koon called.

The dealer spread {8-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{8-Clubs}, Koon check-called a bet of 33,300, and the turn brought a third heart - the {7-Hearts}. Koon checked, Esfandiari announced all in, and Koon snapped off the 116,800-chip wager.

Esfandiari: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}
Koon: {a-Hearts}{4-Hearts}

Esfandiari was drawing to the case ace or one of the two remaining eights in the deck, but neither came as the {q-Spades} completed the board. Koon doubled to 390,000 chips, while Esfandiari fell to 115,000.
