Steinmatz On the Ropes
Berthold Winz has taken most of the early heads-up hands in raise/fold scenarios, applying maximum pressure to his opponent.
Ronald Steinmetz opened to 1,750,000 from the button and was faced with a three-bet to 4,500,000 by Winz in the big blind. Steinmetz called.
The 8♣7♥4♣ flop was checked through. On the Q♣ turn, Winz led out with a bet of 2,500,000 and Steinmetz called.
The 9♠ river completed the board. Winz slowed down and checked to his opponent. Steinmetz took a stab at it with a bet of 3,000,000, which Winz quickly called.
Steinmetz showed A♦5♦ for ace-high, having missed his flopped gutshot. Winz showed J♥10♥ for the queen-high straight.
Steinmetz was left with ten big blinds and was on the ropes.
