Sammartino Makes an Eight to Double Off Sternheimer
Level 7
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,800 ante
Dario Sammartino raised to 3,500 in middle position and Matthew Schreiber called on the button. Philip Sternheimer then three-bet to 12,500 in the big blind and only Sammartino called.
Both players drew one and Sternheimer then grabbed a stack of chips and tossed them in the middle. Sammartino peeked at his last card and quickly called for his last 55,000.
"Nine perfect," Sternheimer announced, showing 9x5x4x3x2x, but Sammartino had 8x7x6x3x2x to win the pot and double up.
