Stern Sent Home on Sick Beat

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

A player in middle position raised to 600 and Max Stern called from the cutoff. The blinds came along as well.

The flop came {10-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and action checked around to the original raiser, who c-bet for 2,000. Stern raised to 6,000 and the blinds folded. Stern's opponent announced she was all-in and Stern snap-called for his remaining 14,000.

Stern: {9-Hearts}{10-Diamonds}
Opponent: {A-Spades}{J-Diamonds}

Stern was in excellent shape to double up after the {2-Spades} fell on the turn. But a cruel river brought the {J-Clubs}, pairing Stern's opponent and sending the three-time bracelet winner to the rail.
