Vincenzo Abate Raises Behnam Esfahanizadeh on the River

May 18, 2024

With around 25,000 in the pot on a flop of Club 9Diamond 7Heart 5, Vincenzo Abate bets 13,000 from the button and Behnam Esfahanizadeh calls in the hijack.

Both players check the Diamond 3 turn. The river is the Spade 7 and Esfahanizadeh bets 15,000.

Abate then raises to 45,000 and Esfahanizadeh mucks. “Show, show,” Abate pleads.

“If you tell me what you have, then I’ll tell you what I have,” Esfahanizadeh says, and Abate shows Heart 8Heart 7 for trips as he takes the pot.

WPT Global ambassador Brad Owen entered the field during the dinner break and has already nearly doubled his starting stack.

Vincenzo Abate- 290,000 (290 bb)
Behnam Esfahanizadeh- 80,000 (80 bb)
Brad Owen- 85,000 (80 bb)
