Montone Bluffs Into Sterner's House
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ludvig Sterner checked from the big blind on a 9♣5♥7♣7♠ turn. Diego Montone then added 20,000 to the pot of 75,000 from the hijack, which Sterner called.
The 10♣ fell on the river, seeing Sterner check once more. Montone took some time before putting his opponent all-in for 46,500, and was snap-called.
Montone could only show king-high with K♠Q♣, while Sterner had rivered a boat with his 10♥10♦ for a comfortable double-up. Montone, on the other hand, was left with a stack of 10 big blinds.
