Sturm Doubles in Huge Pot
Level 5
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
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 2♣5♠3♣ 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 K♠6♠ for a stone-cold bluff.
Sturm was sitting comfortably on top set with 10♠10♥ and he raked in the double-up while Grafton was left with just a few big blinds.
