With about 1,200 chips in the middle, three players werein action including PokerStars Team Online player Fredy Torres and World Series of Poker bracelet winner Max Stern. The flop read {A-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} and action checked around to see the {7-Spades} fall on the turn. After the first player bet, Stern raised to 1,500. Torres got out of the way and the first player made the call.

The river paired the board with the {7-Hearts} and the first player bet 3,000. Stern raised to 8,000 and his opponent moved all in for about 10,000. Stern quickly called.

Stern tabled the {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds} for a full house, nines over sevens, and beat his opponent's {J-Spades}{8-Clubs} for a straight. The player had turned the straight and Stern rivered a full house as the board paired on the end. Stern's up to about 55,000 now.
