Stern Loses a Big One

[user340093]

Nível 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Dani Stern (as seen in a previous event)

Dani Stern, one of the online high stakes pros, was off to a sharp start. However, Stern's stack took a hit recently.

We arrived at the table with 2,100 lying in front of Stern, likely a four-bet. His opponent continued the raising war, bumping it to 4,500. Stern called.

With over 90 big blinds in the pot, they continued to the flop. Both contenders checked.

The landed on the turn, and Stern checked again. This time, his rival bet out 3,100. Stern made a kind of, "Why not," gesture, and called.

The river brought another check from Stern, and his opponent fired one more time. This time, however, Stern wasn't willing to pay the offered 4,500.

Despite losing the big clash, Stern is still a bit up on the day.

Darren Elias had bet 10,500 from the button after the player in the big blind had checked on the board. There was already about 10,000 in the pot. His opponent took his time to think but decided to call in the end.

Elias showed for a full house and his opponent mucked.
