John Esposito's table just broke and he took his new seat at Maksim Pisarenko's table. The dealer then asked the floor whether Esposito should be dealt in.
"Why wouldn't I be?" Esposito replied, and he was allowed to play the hand.
"As long as he doesn't win the first hand, then it's not fair," Christopher Vitch added.
Esposito then opened in middle position and Pisarenko three-bet on the button. Esposito called, and they saw a flop of J♠A♥7♠. Pisarenko then bet, and Esposito raised.
Pisarenko called that bet, and continued to call down Esposito on the K♦ turn and 9♦ river. Esposito then showed A♠Q♥10♦9♣ for a straight, and Pisarenko mucked.
