Thumm Wins Blinds Confrontation

Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action folded to Niclas Thumm in the small blind, who completed. Silviu Baltateanu was in the big blind and he raised to 33,000. Thumm quickly reached for chips and three-bet to 85,000. Baltateanu called.
On the K?K?9? flop, Thumm check-called versus a bet of 30,000 from Baltateanu.
The Q? turn was checked through by both players, as was the 5? river.
Thumm showed A?A? for a pair of aces. Baltateanu tapped the table and mucked his hand.
