O'Dell Cripples Sternheimer, Then Finishes Him
Level 16
: 3,000/6,000, 500 ante
Frankie O'Dell: 
/ 
Philip Sternheimer: 
/ 
Frankie O'Dell fired on fifth, sixth and seventh street and Philip Sternheimer called down all the bets, conceding the pot as O'Dell showed two pair and a seven-low. Sternheimer was left with just 300 in chips and he lost them on the very next hand.
Mike Matusow and O'Dell tangled for a side pot with Matusow's board featuring a pair of threes while O'Dell had three low cards out. O'Dell made a seven-low again while Matusow had two pair, nines and threes.
Sternheimer sweated his last card, having a gutshot and a flush draw, but the river missed to bring his tournament to a close.
"Nice playing with you, Phil," O'Dell and Matusow said before Sternheimer headed to the payout desk.
