Sturm Sweeps Over Cyprus
Level 20
: Blinds 75,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
The initial raiser, Denis Vlasov, received two callers for 300,000 each, one of whom was Leon Sturm in the small blind, and another player in the big blind.
After the flop 9?J?4?, both players in the blinds checked to Vlasov, who then made a bet of 375,000, with only Sturm opting to call.
On the 9? turn, Sturm took the lead and bet 900,000. Vlasov deliberated for some time before ultimately deciding to call.
Sturm's bet of 2,400,000 on the river 10? took over 30 seconds and required the use of a time bank card. Vlasov, unenthusiastic about the river card, ultimately mucked his hand.
