Unlucky Turn for Stern

We heard the all-in cry from the dealer over on Dani Stern's table and arrived to find a {5-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{9-Clubs} flop out on the felt, with Stern's {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} going up against Steffen Retterholt's {a-Clubs}{j-Hearts}. The dealer paused while the ESPN crew rushed over to the table and Stern watched on, hoping that club wouldn't send him to the rail.

Unfortunately for Stern, the {3-Clubs} turn would do some fatal damage and with no eight or paired board on the river, Stern's 2012 World Series of Poker Main Event was all over.
