Desilva Leaves Sternberg Short
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Upeshka Desilva opened the action with a raise to 1,800, which was called by Miguel Capriles in the hijack. It then folded to Justin Sternberg on the button who three-bet to 6,000. The blinds folded back to Desilva who made the call, and Capriles folded.
After the Q?Q?7? flop, both players checked to the 9? turn. Desilva then bet out 3,800, which Sternberg called.
The river was the J? and Desilva bet out 11,500. After using one time bank, Sternberg made the call. Desilva tabled A?J? for two pair, aces and jacks, which was good to take the pot as Sternberg tossed his hand in the muck.
