Sturm Sticking Around
Level 10
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Leon Sturm raised the hijack to 80,000 and Aleksejs Ponakovs defended out of the big blind.
Ponakovs checked the 8♣J♥7♦ flop, and Sturm fired a continuation-bet of 75,000. Ponakovs called.
After Ponakovs checked the 7♠ turn, Sturm jammed for 420,000. Ponakovs instantly folded and Sturm won a much-needed pot.
