"Big Hand, Big Bet"
Level 6
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
Rachid El Yaacoubi opened to 1,200 in the cutoff and called when Niklas Astedt three-bet to 3,500 on his left.
El Yaacoubi checked the J♦J♣4♦ flop and slid in a call after Astedt continued for 2,000. El Yaacoubi then took the lead on the 7♣ turn, firing 9,000 and finding a call from Astedt.
The 6♣ river saw El Yaacoubi bet 43,000, leaving just 11,000 behind. Astedt took some time and counted out his chips before making the fold.
"Big hand, big bet" said Astedt after unsuccessfully trying to convince El Yaacoubi to show his cards.
