Dani Stern With Binger

Dani Stern and Michael Binger were moved to the same table a while before dinner and we just caught them in a hand together. Binger was in middle position when he opened up the pot with a raise. Only Stern would call from the button and the dealer would spread out a {q-Clubs}{a-Spades}{7-Diamonds} flop. Binger led for 7,500 here and Stern made the call.

On the {q-Hearts} turn, Binger opted to check and Stern would quickly bet 17,500. Binger didn't want to continue, sending his cards into the muck and the pot to Stern.

Stern has had some success at the World Series of Poker in the past, finishing in fourth place in the $40,000 No Limit Hold'em - 40th Anniversary event in 2009 and taking fifth place in the $10,000 Pot Limit Hold'em Championship in 2010.
