Esposito Goes Through a Roller Coaster of Emotions
Pot-Limit Omaha
Talal Shakerchi limped in from the button, Andrew Brown limped in from the small blind, and John Esposito checked his option in the big blind.
Brown led for 18,000 on the 
flop, and Esposito raised to 90,000. Shakerchi folded.
"You'll never miss it," Esposito crooned at Brown, who eventually called.
Brown bet enough to put Esposito at risk for his last 204,000 on the 
turn, and Esposito tank-called.
"Just a draw," Brown said, to which Esposito replied, "You're drawin' pretty slim."
Andrew Brown: 
John Esposito: 
"Thank you very much," Esposito said after the 
river fell.
"Flush," Brown replied, prompting a quick, "Oh my God!" and a fist slam on the table from Esposito. He looked at the board again then said, "I have a full house!" with his ace-ten, which earned the relieved Esposito a double.
