Willerson Sends Steinberg to the Rail
It was folded around to Neil Willerson in the small blind, who completed. Max Steinberg checked his option for a heads-up pot.
The flop came 

and Willerson checked to Steinberg, who fired 20,000 into the middle. Willerson responded by check-raising to 125,000 - which was just under Steinberg's remaining stack of 170,000. Steinberg thought it over before pushing all in and Willerson snap-called to put Steinberg at risk.
Steinberg: 
for a pair of aces.
Willerson: 
for two-pair.
The
turn and
river kept Willerson in the lead and Steinberg was sent to the rail.
Willerson is up to 750,000 as a result of the knockout.
