Stern Still Chipping Up

Dani Stern has recently sky rocketed up the chip counts and has now picked up a few extra chips, courtesy of this hand that we caught from the {5-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{k-Hearts} flop. At this point it was Stern versus two opponents, with one player to act first and the other player on the button. All three players checked here and a {k-Clubs} was dealt on the turn. One check would see the action on Stern and he would bet 9,500. The player on the button called and the other folded as the dealer would flip over the {2-Clubs} on the river.

This time Stern would check and his opponent check behind. At showdown, Stern tabled {j-Hearts}{j-Clubs} - enough to send his opponent's cards straight into the muck and some chips into his stack.
