Petersen Left Short; Triples

Level 5 : 300/600, 0 ante

Alexander Petersen was left short and with a mountain to climb after Niklas Astedt spiked the running clubs with {A-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}{9-Clubs} to hit the nut flush.

Astedt then limped in first to act, as did Dany Chidiac and Jan Suchanek in the small blind. Petersen moved all in for the remainder of his short stack and Astedt raised to 10,800, Chidiac called and Suchanek folded.

"That's exactly what I wanted, now you can maybe give a little back," Petersen said to Astedt.

The flop brought {A-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}{6-Spades} and Astedt bet 8,000, Chidiac called. On the {7-Diamonds} turn, Astedt bet 15,500 and Chidiac min-raised to 31,000, which forced a Swede.

Alexander Petersen: {K-Hearts}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}
Dany Chidiac: {K-Spades}{9-Clubs}{9-Spades}{8-Spades}

The {3-Hearts} river was a blank and Petersen more than tripled with his two pair.

In the meanwhile, Fraser MacIntyre has been eliminated by Ming Juen Teoh and will likely re-enter soon.
