Kirk Down to $100K
Antonio Esfandiari opened to $2,200. Jennifer Tilly called, but Matthew Kirk wanted to play for more and made it $10,000. Esfandiari made it $28,000, and Tilly folded. Kirk called and they went to a flop, with Kirk having started the hand around $230,000. The dealer spread a flop, and both checked. Esfandiari checked the , and Kirk bet $25,000. Esfandiari called and checked the . Kirk cut out $75,000 and slid it in. Esfandiari immediately called, and Kirk showed for the low straight. We couldn't see Esfandiari's cards, but he presumably had either a better straight or a flush because the dealer pushed the pot his way.
Kirk's down to around $100,000 now.
