Antonio Esfandiari Poker Fan » High Stakes Poker http://esfandiaripoker.com I'm not The Magician -- but I'm a VERY big fan!

He is one of four players to have appeared on every season to date. The other three include Doyle Brunson, Barry Greenstein, and Daniel Negreanu.

In this form of the game, Esfandiari is a dangerous player and poses a big threat. Whether he’s playing at the best Canada online casino or the toughest Greek one, he knows how to win. At a table he can be a real livewire and intimidate the others, even if they are world class players in their own right.

We’re looking forward to seeing Antonio clash heads with some of the rich business-men they’re lining up for this game – and I’m willing to bet Antonio will finish this year’s High Stakes Poker winner. Anyone taking even money?

He COULD have played them differently and maybe won a small pot — but this was by far the second best alternative, I’m sure.

Good laydown, Antonio!

I just heard Antonio will most likely be playing again in the upcoming Season 5 of High Stakes Poker. I’m hoping our friend Antonio will have a little more luck than he had last times on the series, as he seriously deserves a High Stakes Poker break…

Will try to keep you posted with more High Stakes Poker Season 5 news when it pops up…

I don’t like Daniel’s table talk on this hand, but hey, it worked out for him in the end. :)

Antonio Esfandiari. Thing is, this would have been so much more funny without Daniel faking for so long….

No way it took him that long to get it, but I guess it’s for TV…. Still funny though :D

Daniel Negreanu (wearing his $1000 south point chip shirt) pretty much makes a good point calling on a bad play — but still, I believe Phil did the right thing. He tried to take the pot on the flop, and decided not to risk losing any more money in a hand he could have been drawing dead in.

Enjoy the vid — it’s nothing amazing but it’s worth checking out. :)
