Lichtenberger Adds to His Lead

Level 9 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Andrew Lichtenberger opened with a raise to 16,000 in the hijack and when it folded to Philip Sternheimer on the button, he three-bet to 46,000. It folded back to Lichtenberger and he made the call.

After the 410A flop, Lichtenberger check-called a bet of 31,000 from Sternheimer.

Both players checked the Q on the turn, to see the 3 on the river. Lichtenberger then led out for a small bet of 17,000, and Sternheimer responded with a raise to 64,000. Lichtenberger took his time before three-betting to 215,000, and Sternheimer quickly flicked in a chip to call.

Lichtenberger then tabled KJ for a turned Broadway straight, and Sternheimer mucked his hand to give the sizable pot to Lichtenberger.

At a nearby table, Jermey Becker was eliminated.
