Sternheimer & Ausmus Collide in Huge Pot
Level 17
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Artur Martirosian opened to 275,000 from middle position and was called by Jeremy Ausmus from the small blind. Philip Sternheimer three-bet to 1,100,000 and only Ausmus called.
Ausmus checked the 7♥5♥3♠ flop, and Sternheimer fired out a pot-sized bet of 2,375,000. Ausmus used up a time bank before jamming as the slighly bigger stack. Sternheimer had 3,110,000 total, and put in the rest of his stack.
Philip Sternheimer: A♦A♠J♠6♣
Jeremy Ausmus: K♥K♠4♠4♥
Ausmus needed a king or a four, but failed to find one on either the 10♣ turn or J♦ river, and was left on fumes.
