Daher Leaves Sturm Short
Level 19
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Albert Daher opened to 100,000 in early position, and called after Leon Sturm three-bet to 240,000 in the hijack.
Daher checked the A♠5♦3♥ flop, and called again when Sturm continued for 100,000. Both players then checked through the 8♣ turn to see the K♣ river.
Daher checked once more, and Sturm used a time bank before betting 450,000. Daher tossed in the quick call.
Sturm showed A♥Q♦ for a pair of aces, while Daher tabled 5♣5♥ for set of fives to claim the pot.
