Stern Takes a Huge One Off Fuhs

Level 10 : 500/1,000, 0 ante

Daniel Fuhs opened the pot with a raise to 2,500 from the cutoff and Max Stern was the only caller on the button.

The flop was {10-Spades}{3-Spades}{9-Hearts} and Fuhs led for 3,500. The bet was met with a call from Stern and the two players saw the {q-Diamonds} turn. This time Fuhs led for 12,000 but was unhappy was Stern went all in for 31,200. After a minute or two of thought, Fuhs reluctantly put in the necessary chips to call.

Stern held {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Diamonds} for a straight while Fuhs had {k-Hearts}{q-Spades}{10-Hearts}{9-Clubs} for top two pair and a straight draw. The river bricked off to ship Stern the massive pot and leave Fuhs with only 10,000 behind.
