Eslami Busts in Brutal Fashion
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Action was picked up on a flop of 3♥6♣10♦ where Richard Green had been checked to, before deciding to bet out for 85,000 into a pot of 140,000. Before long, he was put into the blender, as Ali Eslami shoved for 440,000. Green thought long and hard about his decision, as he only had 645,000 chips behind, and would’ve been left decimated if he called and lost.
After a couple of minutes, he muttered “six-five”, hoping that’s what his opponent had, before flicking in the call. Unfortunately, he guessed his opponent’s kicker incorrectly.
Ali Eslami A♥6♥ 
Richard Green K♦6♦
The 3♣ turn gave Green three outs to a chop, but he chose a different route, as the miracle Kx peeled off on the river, and he took home the pot, as well as Eslami’s bounty.
