Runner Runner Ends Sternberg's Deep Run

Level 35 : Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante

Jonah LaBranche raised under the gun to 1,200,000, the player to his direct left called and it folded around to Jason Sternberg in the big blind. Sternberg, very short-stacked, weighed up his options. He was contemplating for so long that the player to his right called the clock.

The tournament director arrived at the table and asked "Has he had a reasonable amount of time to make a decision?"

"I have," Sternberg answered on behalf of the table, putting his remaining one million chips into the middle.

The action on the side ended promptly as LaBranche bet the board 6?Q?4? for 800,000 prompting the remaining player in the hand to fold.

Jason Sternberg: K?Q?
Jonah LaBranche: K?10?

The turn came the 10? and the river came the 10?. LaBranche's king high turned into trips by the river sending Sternberg home in brutal fashion.
