Antonio Esfandiari a.k.a. "The Magician" has triumphed much in his young life. An immigrant from Iran he quit college to become a professional magician and turned 12-hour days of practice into a thriving professional career. Just 21 and not content with that achievement he next turned to poker.
Antonio was winner of the main event at the 2004 L.A. Poker Classic and winner of the $2000 buy-in pot-limit hold'em event at the 2004 World Series of Poker. Youngest player to win a televised WPT event.
This stylish decorative plaque celebrates his triumph in the poker world. Measuring 14.5 x 12.5 inches the plaque's frame is polished wood with a matte black finish. Two professionally-cut mat boards frame the items within the plaque including an authographed picture of Antonio in action an engraved brushed metal title plate commemorating one of Antonio's many astonishing achievements a hand of Nine/Seven (Antonio's favorite pocket cards) and two very limited edition poker chips.
The black chip is a 10g clay composite photo-embedded chip with Antonio's likeness in a unique and exclusive design. You will not find this chip anywhere else! The second is a poker chip "retired" from action in the World Poker Tour.
Lastly each plaque has a small holographic numbered label affixed in the corner of Antonio's photo ensuring individuality and authenticity. Quantities are very limited on this plaque. These will not last!
