Antonio Esfandiari opened to 1,200 with the button, and Grayson Ramage three-bet to 3,600. Esfandiari called.
The dealer fanned , and Ramage tanked for a bit before leading out for 2,700. Esfandiari tank-called.

Ramage tabled for nine-high, and Esfandiari showed for ace-high. Ramage left the Brasilia Room, and Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier gave Esfandiari props for the call.
"These wizards think they can run me over," Esfandiari told us, grinning.
Esfandiari and Grospellier are now heads up for a trip to Day 2.
