Sternberg's Three-Bet Gets the Job Done
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
A player raised in early position to 1,500 and the action folded around to Alan Sternberg who put in a three-bet to 5,500. The blinds quickly folded and the original raiser took only a couple of seconds before giving it up.
Sternberg let him know he made a good fold by tabling the 
and his opponent thanked him as he said, "I was dominated but I had a good hand."
