Esfandiari Gives Brikis Chips, But May Be Taking His Money

Level 4 : 75/150, 0 ante

Antonio Esfandiari opened the action with a limp from middle position. After one more limper, Josh Brikis raised to 500 and it folded back around to the limpers. Esfandiari asks Brikis for a count and moved him all in for his last 2,650. After the second limper folded, Brikis quickly called and tables two black aces. Esfandiari just had a pair of fours and never gave Brikis a sweat. He is now down to just 1,500.

However, Esfandiari, well known for his prop bet antics, already has the table playing a round of "Lodden Thinks". This round, the players are wagering on the amount of money it would take for a certain player to skip the Main Event for just this year. Brikis is playing, as is table mate Andrew Frankenberger. So far, no number has been reached.
