Sorm Storms Up Leaderboard With Aces
Level 1
: Blinds 100/100, 100 ante
Jonny Raninen raised to 400 under the gun, which Andre Sorm three-bet to 1,000 as next to act. It folded to Diego Rodriguez Cantillana in the big blind, who called, after which Raninen four-bet to 6,400.
That was still not enough for Raninen, however, who upped the ante to 12,600, prompting Rodriguez to quickly get out of the way. Raninen took a few moments before he shoved all in, and Sorm instantly called off his stack of 22,600.
Andre Sorm: A♠A♦ 
Jonny Raninen: Q♠Q♥
