2014 World Series of Poker
Esfandiari Folds His Set
The board read when Antonio Esfandiari bet and Marwan Abdelal raised it up.
After a while Esfandiari started talking and said, "Can I really fold a set to one extra bet?"
Another 20 seconds went by and Esfandiari mucked his face up.
Vitaly Lunkin laughed and seemed very surprised with Esfandiari's fold, but the One Drop winner's still above the starting stack.

Greenstein Didn't Win a Hand
As players were moved around we looked for Barry Greenstein all across the tournament room, but we found no trace.
Greenstein, who's cashed one event this summer so far, did not win a single pot according to his former table mate Rep Porter.
Greenstein has three World Series of Poker bracelets under his belt, but his fourth will have to wait a bit longer.

Hsiung Stays Alive
Limit Hold'em bracelet winner Kenny Hsiung was just all in for his tournament life on the river in a hand that started out five-way.
We picked up the action on the flop with five players involved, and the first three checked to Richard Sklar who bet. The player in position called and Kenny Hsiung check-raised. Domenico de Notaristefani three-bet, Sklar and the player in position folded after which Hsiung called.
On the turn, the , Hsiung bet and De Notaristefani called. The river was the and Hsiung bet again and this time Notaristefani raised.
"Really? You got kings?" Hsiung said, right before he moved all in for just a few more chips.
De Notaristefani made the call and mucked when Hsiung showed .
"That would've been really, really sick," Sklar said about the scenario in which Hsiung would've ran into pocket kings.
