"Such a Monster, It's Sick!"

Level 15 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Action folded to Phil Galfond on the button, and he opened to 110,000. Big blind Antonio Esfandiari called and checked on the {9-Clubs}{4-Hearts}{8-Hearts} flop. Galfond bet 115,000, followed by a check-raise to 310,000 from Esfandiari. Galfond called.

Both checked the {7-Hearts} on the turn before the {6-Clubs} on the river made for a four-to-a-straight board. Esfandiari checked, and Galfond bet 460,000 with 1,180,000 behind.

"What you got, Mister Galfond?" Esfandiari asked, "Got a straight?"

Esfandiari tanked some more, said "Such a monster, it's sick!", and folded.
