Young and Abesamis Doing Well

Jason Young has expanded his stack to 63,000, calling Donald Carlton's bets on every street of an {A-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} {9-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} board.

Carlton: Q-3
Young: A-J

------

Meanwhile things are also looking up for Tony Abesamis. Ali Eslami bet from the button on a {K-Spades} {8-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} flop. Craig Gray in the small blind called, and Abesamis in the big blind raised all in for 23,000. Eslami folded but Gray called with {K-Hearts} {10-Hearts}. Abesamis' {A-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} made a flush on the {9-Diamonds} river, and he's up to 59,000.
