Level 17
: 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Adam Adler scored a lucky double with king-eight against the ace-queen of Antonio Esfandiari when he turned trip eights, and soon after he ended up all in for seven big blinds again. Esfandiari had jammed the button with his massive stack and Adler called for 74,000 in the small blind.

board gave Esfandiari trips fives and Adler headed to the payout desk. Josh Prager had been eliminated before that as well.
