"Oh Wow, I Got It in Good"
Action folded around to McLean Karr in the cutoff and he raised to 16,000. His good friend, Antonio Esfandiari, then three-bet to 34,000 from the big blind, inspiring both blinds to get out of the way. Karr responded by moving all in for 98,000, and after about a minute's worth of thought, Esfandiari made the call.

Esfandiari:   |
Karr:   |
"Oh wow, I got it in good," Karr said upon seeing Esfandiari's hand. The rail leaned in close as the dealer put down the flop... 
, a blank for Esfandiari. The 
turn wasn't anything exciting, and while the river was paint, it was the harmless 
. With that, Karr doubled through the WSOP's all-time money leader.
