Cech Stuns Juncker With the Nuts
Level 23
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Vitezslav Cech raised to 50,000 in the hijack, Henrik Juncker three-bet to 180,000 on the button, and Cech called.
The flop came Q♠10♣2♥ and Juncker bet 150,000. Cech called to the K♠ turn, where Juncker bet another 320,000. Cech then moved all in, and Juncker snap-called for 700,000.
Juncker showed K♣K♥ for a set, but Cech had turned the nut straight with A♣J♣. The 4♦ fell on the river and Juncker slammed his chips on the table in frustration before heading to the exit.
At another table, Nikola Gunchev was all-in for 320,000 from the cutoff and up against Marcin Lesniewski in middle position.
Nikola Gunchev: 7♣7♠ 
Marcin Lesniewski: 9♠9♣
Gunchev was dominated by Lesniewski's nines, and the board ran out 5♥J♣6♠5♠K♥ to send him to the rail.
