Korochenskiy Doesn't Notice Sturm, Doubles Off Him Anyway

Level 16 : Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante

Leon Sturm raised to 10,000 in early position before Bruno Bernardino moved all in for 50,000 on the button. Anatoly Korochenskiy called in the small blind, then let out a laugh. "I didn't see you," he told Sturm. Sturm then reshoved and Korochenskiy snap-called for 194,000.

"So you do have aces," Sturm said.

Bruno Bernardino: 77
Anatoly Korochenskiy: KK
Leon Sturm: 88

Korochenskiy didn't have aces, but he did have Sturm crushed with two kings. Sturm picked up a straight draw heading to the river on a board of 9510J, but he missed the 5 as Korochenskiy doubled up and busted Bernardino.

Ruida Lin moved all in for 202,000 in the big blind and Eero Rantala called in the cutoff.

Ruida Lin: JJ
Eero Rantala: AK

Lin was racing for his tournament life but fell behind as the 8A10 flop gave Rantala top pair. The K turn improved Rantala to two pair and left him poised to collect the pot and end the night with more than 1,000,000, but the Q spiked on the river to give Lin a straight.

"Yes. Let me take a picture, please," Lin yelled out as he snapped a photo of the board.

"Thank you, chip leader," he said to Rantala as he collected the miracle double up.
