Sturm Folds the Best Hand
Level 23
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Leon Sturm opened to 800,000 on the button with A?7? and Jans Arends just called from the big blind holding K?Q?. The flop came 10?6?4? and both players checked to the 8? on the turn.
Arends led out with a bet of 1,800,000 with his flush draw but Sturm stuck around for the 7? on the river. Arends announced all in on the river with just king-high and Sturm dumped the best hand into the muck.
