Brettski Scores a KO
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Brett "Brettski" Stern limped from early position. A player in the cutoff raised to 6,000, the button called, and Stern called.
On the K♠8♠7♥ flop, "Brettski" Stern checked to the cutoff who 8,000. The button called, and Stern check-potted to put both players at risk. The cutoff quickly folded and the button went into the tank.
"You need a coin?" asked Stern as his opponent contemplated the call. The button eventually tossed in calling chips and the cards hit their backs.
Button: J♥J♦10♥9♥ 
"Brettski" Stern: A♠K♣Q♠9♦
The 9♠ peeled off on the turn which gave Stern the nut flush and left his opponent drawing dead. The 7♦ river was inconsequential as the social media star knocked out his opponent.
