"What Is That Hand?"; Eslami Stuns Klodnicki on the River

Level 17
Ali Eslami
Ali Eslami

Limit Hold'em

Christian Roberts, Ali Eslami, and Mike Matusow all got a bet in the middle on a board of K5Q8 before Chris Klodnicki raised in the small blind. All three opponents called.

The river was the 2 and action checked to Eslami who bet in the cutoff. Matusow folded, while Klodnicki called and Roberts got out of the way.

Eslami showed 74 for a rivered flush. "You didn't have to raise," he told Klodnicki as he took the pot.

"What is that hand? Somehow Ali got four bets in pre and four bets in on every other street," Matusow added after the hand.
