Sturm Caught with Hand in Cookie Jar

Ryan Lashmar

Niveau 21 : Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Leon Sturm opened to 50,000 from under the gun and Naoki Matsumoto clicked it back to 100,000 from the button. Sturm made the call.

The flop came J♦4♣8♥ and Sturm check-called a 25,000 continuation bet from Matsumoto. Both players checked the K♠ turn.

On the Q♣ river Sturm fired a 250,000 bet. After about a minute of deliberation Matsumoto made the call.

Sturm tabled A♥7♥ for a bluff and Matsumoto showed Q♦10♦ for second pair to take the pot down.
