Level 10 : Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Leon Sturm

Action picked up on the flop in a hand between Leon Sturm and Shannon Shorr.

With about 90,000 in the pot and the board reading Q93, Shorr check-called a bet of 61,000 from Sturm.

The 4 turn went check-check, and on the 2 river, Shorr led out with a bet of 185,000. Sturm then raised to 630,000, putting Shorr all in for a little less.

After using several time bank cards, Shorr made the call and saw the bad news when Sturm tabled 65, having hit a backdoor straight.
