Eskenazi Spikes the River to Double Up

Level 3 : 200/300, 300 ante

Four players headed to the flop of {j-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{7-Diamonds} and the big blind started with a check. The player on his left tossed in a bet of 1,400 which was called by the hijack. Scott Eskenazi was in the cutoff and also called.

When the action came back to the big blind, he check-raised to 6,000. The other two players quickly folded but Eskenazi moved all in for 28,300. The big blind instantly called and the cards were tabled.

Scott Eskenazi: {a-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}
Big Blind: {10-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Eskenazi needed to hit a diamond to complete his flush and move ahead of his opponent's straight.

The {2-Spades} hit the turn but the {4-Diamonds} on the river gave Eskenazi a full double up.
