I just went through the process and I was thinking: Okay here we are. How hard was your heart beating?Įsfandiari: It wasn’t beating that hard actually. Question: Talk about the last hand when you’re sweating the last two cards – the flush draw. Question: On a scale of Antonio Esfandiari’s greatness, how great is this?Įsfandiari: It’s like 182, feels like. I got pretty unlucky when it was three-handed, and so I was determined to come back and win another one. I wanted to win even more since I took third and didn’t win that tournament. At that time, could you have possibly thought you’d get to this moment.Įsfandiari: Yes.

Question: Antonio, you walked off this stage about a week and a half ago in a very disappointing third place.
