Eskandari Chip Leader….Again
It’s been quite a couple of weeks for local poker pro Massoud Eskandari down here in Gardena. Just over a week ago, Eskandari took down Event #2 after a six way chop, pocketing over $42,000 for his efforts. However, it was the way he won the tournament that really was quite impressive. Eskandari brought the chip lead into Day 2 of that event, and never let go of that lead, going wire-to-wire until the end.
Well Eskandari bagged an above average stack in this Main Event, and he has just went on a huge surge to put him at…you guessed it…the chip lead as we approach the final three tables. Eskandari is currently sitting on just under four million chips, which looks to have the room cleared by over 500,000. Will Eskadandari pulled off the near impossible and win the two biggest events here at The Grand Slam of Poker? We should know soon enough!
