Level 24 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

Julian Stuer tried to bully John Juanda off a pot on the board {6-Spades}{6-Hearts}{5-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{5-Spades} and Juanda check-called the bet of 225,000 on the river after both previous streets were checked. Juanda called and Stuer mucked.

Then, Stuer raised to 80,000 and Dario Sammartino three-bet to 260,000 in the small blind. Juanda folded the big blind and Stuer moved all in, Sammartino snap-called for 1,300,000.

Dario Sammartino: {A-Diamonds}{A-Spades}
Julian Stuer: {J-Spades}{J-Hearts}

The {Q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Hearts} flop changed nothing much, and Sammartino all but locked up the hand with the {A-Hearts} on the turn. However, there was that danger of a flush draw and Sammartino was not celebrating yet, as if he knew what lady luck was up to. Sure enough, the {2-Hearts} on the river gave Stuer a flush and Sammartino a brutal exit in 4th place for €384,340. Stuer increased his lead even further, and all three remaining players have €471,400 guaranteed.
