Klodnicki: 
Esfandiari: 
"It's a fair fight!" Perkins stood and yelled when the hands were tabled.
True enough, the two were racing, and Esfandiari remained in the lead when the flop fell 
. Klodnicki held backdoor straight and flush draws, but both of them were extinguished when the 
turned.
Esfandiari was strolling around the stage, one card away from a much-needed double, and the crowed hushed as the 
fell on the river. Stunned, Esfandiari threw his hands on top of his head and walked slowly to where his seat had been. After a few handshakes, the still shell-shocked Esfandiari left the mothership, and a massive, 20 million-chip pot was pushed Klodnicki's way.
