Slide 'em to Eslami

A player limped in from hijack seat, prompting a "limpede" around the table as the cutoff, button, and small blind all followed suit. That's when Ali Eslami decided to go against the grain and shove his remaining stack all in, an action that caused folds all around.

He tabled his hand — {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts} — as the chips were slid his way. "The table's about to break, anyway," he noted with a grin.
