Sternheimer Grows Lead
Level 15
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Philip Sternheimer raised as first to act to 60,000 chips and was called by Boris Kolev in the cutoff. Sternheimer placed a bet of 65,000 on the 8?J?4? flop and was once again called by the Bulgarian.
On the 2? turn, both players checked before Sternheimer piled in 200,000 chips on the 8? river. Kolev spent a few time extensions before tossing in the call.
Sternheimer showed down K?K? for two pair, kings and eights, and took down the pot as Kolev's cards flew into the muck.
