Picking up the action on the flop of ![]()
![]()
, Alan Sternberg and Jeremy Ausmus were heads-up in a pot. The two players wasted little time getting all of the chips in the middle with Ausmus being the player at risk for a little over 50,000.
Jeremy Ausmus: ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
Alan Sternberg: ![]()
![]()
![]()
![]()
Ausmus currently held the best high and best low hand but Sternberg had outs for both. The
on the turn didn't change much but the
on the river gave Sternberg a wheel to send Ausmus to the rail.
