Sterner Doubles His Crumbs
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Ludvig Sterner was down to 18,000, which he jammed in from the cutoff. Govert Metaal asked for a count in the big blind before committing a call.
Ludvig Sterner: A♥10♠ 
Govert Metaal: 9♣6♠
"Unlucky man," Metaal quipped before the 2♥Q♦10♥ flop fell.
"No, I think I will win this one," Sterner replied as the K♦ turn indeed left Metaal drawing dead. Metaal paid Sterner as soon as the 5♣ river had completed the board, doubling the Swede up to 11 big blinds.
