Ding Falls to Sturm
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Leon Sturm shoved from the small blind and Biao Ding called off his stack of around 230,000 from the big blind.
Biao Ding: A♦4♣
Leon Sturm: K♣7♥
Ding was in the lead with his ace-high, but needed to catch up after Sturm paired his king on the K♦Q♦6♣ flop. A 7♠ on the turn sealed the deal as Sturm made an unbeatable two pair, which improved to a full house on the K♥ river just for extra measure.
