Sontheimer Knocks Out Fatehi And Grabs Lead
Level 9
: 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante
On the turn, the board read 
and Steffen Sontheimer had 400,000 in front of him. Ali Fatehi check-raised all in for 1,350,000 and Sontheimer didn't like it.
"Count please," he asked. Sontheimer took another thirty seconds before making up his mind.
"I cannot fold this," he said.
Ali Fatehi: 
Steffen Sontheimer: 
Sontheimer was way ahead and the 
on the river didn't help Fatehi.
"I really thought he had it," Sontheimer said afterwards.
