Stern Loses a Big One

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

Dani Stern, one of the online high stakes pros, was off to a sharp start. However, Stern's stack took a hit recently.

We arrived at the table with 2,100 lying in front of Stern, likely a four-bet. His opponent continued the raising war, bumping it to 4,500. Stern called.

With over 90 big blinds in the pot, they continued to the {J-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{7-Spades} flop. Both contenders checked.

The {10-Diamonds} landed on the turn, and Stern checked again. This time, his rival bet out 3,100. Stern made a kind of, "Why not," gesture, and called.

The river {A-Clubs} brought another check from Stern, and his opponent fired one more time. This time, however, Stern wasn't willing to pay the offered 4,500.

Despite losing the big clash, Stern is still a bit up on the day.
