JC Tran just tangled with Antonio Esfandiari again, only this time they didn't have the same hand.
The hand began with a 10,000 bet from Tony Ruberto. Esfandiari flatted before Tran potted it for 42,000, leaving himself very little behind. Ruberto let it go, but Esfandiari bet enough to put Tran all in for his last 67,000.
It was a classic race with Tran on 
and Esfandiari holding 
but Tran held on through the 
board to double through Esfandiari.
"Thought maybe we had the same hand again," said Esfandiari, pushing a good portion of his stack across the table.
