There's one piece of information that certainly colored her decision-making process--during the deal the
had been exposed. Maria set her glasses atop her cards as Maura counted out the chips required for a call."You look happy and confident," Maura said and Maria quickly replied, "I am, baby!" Stern warmed the room with a radiant smile...right up to the point where Harris called. And showed
to Stern's 
. "I thought you were really strong," Harris said as a crowd gathered around.The
flop kept Harris in the lead but on the turn, the 
fell. With the exposed king out of play Maura needed to hit her two-outer but instead the 
fell on the river. Maria doubled up to around 12,000 while Maura saw her stack slip to 8,000.
