Sterba Takes First Step in Comeback

Frank Visser

Level 24 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Julien Mariani opened to 60,000 in the cutoff, and Jakub Sterba moved all in for 205,000 in the big blind. Mariani quickly called.

Jakub Sterba: A♣10♥ All in
Julien Mariani: A♥5♦

The 8♠3♠3♥ flop brought some chop outs on the table, but Sterba scooped the pot when the 7♥ turn and J♥ river changed nothing for either player.
