Hanson Gets There, then Sternheimer Does

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

On a flop of 1072, Bart Hanson got his final 53,000 or so into the middle from the big blind, at risk against Philip Sternheimer from under the gun.

Bart Hanson: AKQ7 All in
Philip Sternheimer: A922

Hanson held the nut flush draw against Sternheimer's bottom set, and neither player held an immediate low draw.

The 8 turn completed Hanson's flush, vaulting him into the lead. It was short-lived, however, as the 8 peeled off on the river, giving Sternheimer a full house as the defending champion eliminated Hanson.
