Leon Sturm opens to 90,000 from under the gun and Nikita Kuznetsov three-bets to 200,000 in the cutoff. Sturm four-bet shoves the covering stack and Kuznetsov lets his hand go.
On the very next hand Kuznetsov opens to 90,000 in the hijack, Sturm defends his big blind and the dealer spreads out as a flop. Sturm check-calls a bet of 40,000 and the peels over.
The action falls to Kuznetsov once more and he bets 145,000. Sturm slowly pushes his cards into the middle, sending Kuznetsov back some chips.
Nikita Kuznetsov – 675,000 (17 bb)
Leon Sturm – 1,500,000 (38 bb)
