Stein's Counterfeiting Operation Pays

When we got to the table the board read {4-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{2-Clubs}. Sam "KingKobeMVP" Stein checked and his opponent shoved for 8,025 into a pot of only 2,500. Stein made a huge call, as we'd see when the cards were turned.

Cutoff: {5-Hearts}{4-Clubs}
Stein: {8-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}

Stein had a lot of catching up to do. The turn was the {j-Spades}, which didn't change much. However when the {j-Clubs} came on the river, Stein made a better two pair and is now up to 17,500 chips.
