Nurding Gets Paid
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
On a flop of A♠A♣2♥, Alex Nurding bet 1,500 but was then raised to 3,200 by Christopher Smith. The rest of the players got out of the way and Nurding called to see the 4♥ on the turn.
Nurding then checked to Smith, who continued for 2,200, but then it was Nurding's turn to raise and he made it 10,000 to go.
After a few seconds, Smith tossed in the call and the two went to the river 2♦, which double-paired the board.
Nurding then bet 25,000 and Smith went deep into the tank. After almost two minutes, he made the call, but was shown A♥10♥ by Nurding for a full house and he quickly mucked. This win brings Nurding up to 136,000 and is one of the biggest stacks so far.
