Sturm Doubles in Huge Pot

Level 5 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Leon Sturm
Leon Sturm

Multiple raises went in preflop between Sam Grafton on the cutoff and Leon Sturm on the button, resulting in a pot of 95,000 chips sitting in the middle of the table when the 253 flop was dealt.

Grafton then bet out 24,000 and Sturm made the call. Grafton upped the ante to 65,000 on the 9 turn and Sturm still called. The 10 river then completed the board and Grafton spent some time in the tank before going all in, covering Sturm by a little bit. Sturm snap-called for his 87,000 stack and saw Grafton table K6 for a stone-cold bluff.

Sturm was sitting comfortably on top set with 1010 and he raked in the double-up while Grafton was left with just a few big blinds.
