Sturm Storms Off
Level 20
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Leon Sturm got all of his 650,000 chips in from the button against Alex Keating in the big blind. Keating had the covering stack when the cards were flipped over.
Leon Sturm: K♠K♥
Alex Keating: A♣Q♣
The flop remained safe for Sturm with 9♠J♥6♠ appearing, but the A♥ turn spelled disaster for him. He could not hit a king on the 4♥ river and was consequently eliminated from the Main Event.
Keating apologized but Sturm told him there was no need, before swiftly departing.
