Sternheimer the First to Fall

Level 4 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

We missed the exact amounts, but we do know a preflop raising war saw Philip Sternheimer shove all in from the button and Max Lehmanski made the call from the big blind.

Lehmanski: {a-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Sternheimer: {8-Hearts}{7-Clubs}

Sternheimer knew he'd been caught even before the cards were tabled, but even so he was drawing to two live cards. Unfortunately for him, the {q-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}{9-Diamonds} flop gave Lehmanski two pair. Sternheimer needed running cards to stay alive, and he found one when the {5-Diamonds} turn gave him a gutshot straight draw to a non-diamond six. The dealer burned one last time and put out the {2-Diamonds}.

Lehmanski made a flush to win the pot while Sternheimer rapped the table and quickly exited the tournament floor. Whether or not he opts to re-enter remains to be seem.
