Stern's Elimination Brings Us to the Bubble
Dani Stern raised to 16,000 from middle position and received a single call in the form of Jonathan Jaffe in the big blind. Both players proceeded to get all the money in on the flop and it became obvious why when the cards were turned up:
Jaffe:
Stern:
Jaffe had flopped bottom set while Stern had top-two pair. While behind, Stern could still catch an ace or jack on the river to steal the pot. The turn was no help and neither was the river. Stern was eliminated in 29th place, just two shy of the money.
