that is just off the wall.there must have been a lot of cash on it.it would be nice to know how much esfandiari and perkins had on it but we probably wont find that out.but esfandiari must be absolutely gutted that he got kicked out of the pca main event.he will probably think through his prop bets an awful lot more now after this though.
I think it's a little ridiculous that he got disqualified for something so silly and harmless. If they were going to punish him, he should have been penalized in some way, but not disqualified from the whole tournament. Antonio is a pretty awesome guy. He's donating all the money he won from that prop bet, $50 000, to charity.
