Stearns Wrestles Pot From Cloninger
Level 33
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
After an explosive first level of the day with ten eliminations in a space of an hour, the play has become more sedate. Loren Cloninger bet 700,000 from the cutoff and was met with a raise from David Stearns on the button for 1,500,000.
Stearns moved all in for 6,000,000 on the A♠10♦8♦ flop to the annoyance of Cloniger who tutted when he folded.
