Stein of Ail

Sam Stein, short stack
Sam Stein, short stack

Poor Sam Stein - it's not been his day at all, while opponents around his table double up from his once fat stack. Even former chip leader Chris Bjorin had taken enough damage to be covered by Stein in the hand which doubled him...

The hand started with four limps on Chris Bjorin's big blind, which he checked. On the {4-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {6-Diamonds} flop Bjorin bet out 20k, and utg Stein raised him - no one else was interested. Bjorin was, though, and got it all in right there holding {A-Diamonds} {7-Spades} {9-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} while Stein tabled {A-Hearts} {10-Hearts} {5-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds}.

The turn and river were {3-Spades} {9-Diamonds}, the river bringing the nut flush for Bjorin and sending him back over 200k. Stein ended with 19k and the big blind, so we knew he'd probably not be sitting back next hand...
