Esser Makes "Greatest Call in Poker History"
Vito Barone raised to 66,000 out of a stack of 86,000 from the small blind. Martin Kabrhel folded in the big blind and Barone tabled 3x3x.
In the following hand, Kabrhel opened to 27,000 from the small blind, and Philipp Esser called from the big blind.
"That's me," Kabrhel repeated as the flop came K♥10♣9♦. He bet 25,000 and was called.
"That's me," Kabrhel said again as the J♠ turn came in on the turn. "I have a flush draw now."
"And now a straight," as the action checked through to the Q♣ river. Kabrhel bet 300,000 to put his opponent all-in and Esser checked in a calling chip.
Kabrhel tabled 4x2x and played the board. Esser turned over 9x7x to chop the pot.
"One of the greatest call in poker history," complimented Kabrhel as he asked the dealer for his chips back.
