A Stern Defeat

[user66118]

Max Stern, winner of three WSOP bracelets, has been eliminated just short of the money. He moved all in for his last 9,975 from under the gun, and got called by both Carter Gill and Maurice Molina. The two men checked it all the way down as the dealer ran out a board of {Q-Diamonds}

.

Stern tabled {A-Clubs}

for top-top, but Gill's {5-Spades}

had improved to a flush on the river. He delivers the final blow to Stern, who was short stacked for the last five or six levels of his tournament.

The hopes of the Stern family now rest on wife Maria, who is still alive and kicking, sitting with 75,000 in chips.
