Sterling Getting Pounded
Matt Sterling potted, only for Burt Boutin to re-pot. The unhappy Sterling folded and dropped to just 107,000.
So it was that a couple hands later, Rob Hollink made it 23,000 in the cutoff, only for Matt Sterling to re-pot from the small blind - 56,000 - with around 19,000 behind. Once the amounts had been agreed and Sterling's reraise counted out in front of him, he turned to the TV and pretended to be interested in the golf. Hollink stared into his Starbucks for a while. Eventually he folded, and Sterling bumped his short stack back up to 130,000. Hollink dropped to 440,000.
