Thiriart Sends Stephens Home
Level 29
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Action folded around to Kent Stephens in the cutoff who open-jammed all in for 735,000. Arthur Thiriart on the button went into the tank for a short while and made the call. The blinds both folded quickly.
Kent Stephens: 8♠8♦
Arthur Thiriart: K♣J♣
A safe flop came for Stephens of A♦3♦3♥ but when the dealer flipped over the J♠ as the turn he was in trouble and needed help quickly. No joy on the 7♣ brick of a river and Stephens was off to the cage.
