Astedt Back-Raises All In
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Michel Karim open-raised from middle position and Niklas Astedt called in the next seat. Maksim Vaskresenski three-bet to 9,200 from the button and Karim called. Astedt then back-raised all in for 83,000, leaving the table perplexed.
Vaskresenski was first to fold, saying it was "too much" as he mucked his hand. Karim went into the tank and then decided it was best to fold his hand.
"That's why he's the best," said a neutral player as Astedt scooped the pot uncontested.
