Suarez Wins an All-Swede Coin Flip
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Anton Suarez raised to 10,000 in the cutoff before Niklas Astedt three-bet to 35,000 in the big blind. Suarez then moved all in for 140,000 and Astedt snap-called.
Anton Suarez: 8♦8♥
Niklas Astedt: A♦Q♠
The flop came 8♠3♥4♣ and Suarez spiked a set to leave Astedt drawing only to running cards. The turn was the J♣ and Astedt was already drawing dead as the Q♣ arrived too late to avoid him handing over a double up.
