Sturm and Jorstad Both Add Chips
Level 15
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
The next five hands of the final table didn't offer much in the way of entertainment.
Leon Sturm raised one hand on the button to 50,000 and Aleksejs Ponakovs called in the big blind.
On the A♠7♠6♥ flop, Ponakovs check-called a bet of 35,000 from Sturm, and then they both checked to showdown on the 2♣Q♦ runout. Ponakovs flipped king-high with K♠9♥, but Sturm had a pair of jacks holding J♠J♦ to win the pot.
Shortly after, Espen Jorstad made it 65,000 from the small blind and Bryn Kenney called in the big blind.
Both checked the J♦8♠7♠ flop and Jorstad fired 50,000 on the 10♠ turn. Kenney folded.
