Sternheimer Finds a Double at Tang's Expense
Level 16
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Action folded to Philip Sternheimer on the button and he rasied to 50,000, before Danny Tang three-bet all in for his stack of 595,000 in the small blind. The big blind folded and Sternheimer called for his stack of 525,000, putting himself at risk.
Philip Sternheimer: A♦K♥ 
Danny Tang: 4♠4♦
It was a flip with Tang in front, and the 10♥Q♠6♦ flop gave Sternheimer extra outs in the form of a Broadway straight draw. But the K♦ on the turn put Sternheimer in the lead, before the J♥ on the river brought in the Broadway draw, securing Sternheimer the double up, and leaving Tang on fumes.
Shortly after the hand Tang was eliminated.
