Sternheimer Rivers Two Pair
Level 2
: Blinds 200/300, 300 ante
Remi Derossi raised to 800 from the hijack and was called by Philip Sternheimer in the cutoff and Haim Gabay in the big blind.
Action checked through on the A♠5♥4♥ flop and Gabay checked again to Derossi, who bet 1,900 on the J♣ turn. Both Sternheimer and Gabay called.
The 8♦ completed the board and and Gabay checked a final time. Derossi bet 6,000, which got a quick call from Sternheimer and a tank-fold from Gabay.
Derossi turned over A♥K♣ for top pair, but Sternheimer revealed A♣8♣ for aces and eights to claim the pot.
