"Gotta Stand Up Baby"

Antonio Esfandiari opens for 19,000 under the gun and Josue Sauvageau calls from the small blind. Nicola Basile then three-bets all in for 198,000 from the big blind, Esfandiari calls, and Sauvageau folds.

Esfandiari: 
Basile: 

Basile gets up out his seat in preparation of his exit, but Esfandiari tells him to sit back down. Indeed, the  flop made things interesting by giving Basile a straight draw, and he called for a jack.

Wouldn’t you know it, the dealer delivers it on the  turn. The  river is of no consequence and an excited Basile explains, “Gotta stand up baby.”

Nicola Basile – 425,000 (53 bbs)
Antonio Esfandiari – 380,000 (47.5 bbs)
