Prop Betting Action with Esfandiari
Yakov Hirsch has been talking more than the entire Monster Stack field combined, and Antonio Esfandiari's happy to interact with him.
Hirsch and Esfandiari, who's a known prop bettor on all sorts of random stuff, have been going back and forth on lots of different bets, and just now the following was going on.
Hirsch said that he would set a line on his own age and Esfandiari would have to guess if it was either over or under. The bet would be for $2,000 and after two minutes Hirsch set the line at 47.
Esfandiari pondered, and pondered, and eventually he suggested to up the bet.
"I almost want to bet more," Esfandiari smiled, and asked Hirsch if he wanted to bet more.
"How about $5k," Hirsch said.
Esfandiari paused, and he clearly wasn't ready to bet that much on this single prop bet.
The two settled on $3,000 and Esfandiari guessed the under, after which Hirsch yelled, "Wrong!"
Hirsch grabbed his ID and showed that he was indeed 48 and collected the money. Esfandiari seemed very sure of himself and our best guess is that these two gentleman will wager a lot more money the later it gets.
