Do You Believe in Magic?

Antonio Esfandiari raised to 650 from the cutoff, and the player on his direct left three-bet to 1,750. The blinds released, and Esfandiari called.

The flop was {a-Spades}{k-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}, and Esfandiari checked. His opponent tossed out 2,100, and Esfandiari check-raised to 5,400. His opponent called.

The turn was the {4-Hearts}, and Esfandiari led out for 9,600. His opponent called.

The river was the {9-Clubs}, and Esfandiari opted to move all in for just under 20,000. His opponent tanked for quite some time, then finally folded.
