Kelly and Esfandiari Lose One
Over in the silver section of the Brasilia Room we just watched Dan Kelly and Antonio Esfandiari lose a few chips on their respective tables.
- On Kelly's table, he opened the action from the hijack to 200. The small blind then three-bet to 700. Kelly made the call and a


flop was dealt. The small blind led for 800 here and Kelly called. Both players then checked the turn and a
hit the river. This time Kelly would fold when the small blind bet 1,625. - Esfandiari was in middle position and opened the pot to 175. The player in the big blind called and a


flop was spread on the felt. Esfandiari check-called a bet of 200 here and both players checked the
turn. On the
river, Esfandiar check-called a bet of 350 and his opponent tabled 
, enough to send Esfandiari's cards into the muck.
