Another Big Pot for Sturm
Approximately 3,000,000 chips were already in the pot due to significant preflop action. The flop revealed A♣2♠9♦, and Tom Talboom opted to check-call Leon Sturm's bet of 725,000.
When the dealer turned the 9♣ on the turn, Talboom once again checked to Sturm. Sturm utilized his entire 30-second time bank to announce his bet of 2,950,000, doing so in the very last second. Talboom also exhausted his time bank before deciding to make the call.
The river brought the K♥, and Talboom checked once more. With just one time bank card remaining, Sturm required 60 seconds to push his entire stack into the middle, amounting to around 6,200,000, leaving only 250,000 behind. Talboom folded, mentioning "You never bluff," and mucked one of his cards face-up, revealing the A♦.
