Steinberg Gets Two Out

Level 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

When we came up three hands were flipped. We knew for sure one was Max Steinberg. He had two opponents covered and all in preflop. The hands were:

Max Steinberg: {a-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}
Opponent 1: {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}
Opponent 2: {9-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

The flop came {j-Clubs}{7-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}. That gave each opponent a little something with Steinberg in the lead with his pair of jacks. The turn gave even more sweat with the {4-Diamonds}. The river was the {3-Spades} and all the draws missed giving Steinberg the best hand with a pair of jacks.

Steinberg got the double knockout and skyrocketed to 93,500.
