Astedt Keeps His Foot on the Gas
Level 34
: Blinds 250,000/500,000, 500,000 ante
Yake Wu opened to 1,000,000 in early position and then called after Niklas Astedt three-bet to 3,000,000 on the button.
Wu check-called a bet of 1,600,000 from Astedt on the 2♥K♥10♦ flop.
Action checked through the A♦ turn to the A♠ river where Wu checked one last time. Astedt, unwilling to go to a cheap showdown, pushed a hefty 8,000,000 into the pot. Wu took some time making a decision but ultimately chose to fold his hand to keep Astedt's ascension since the three table redraw going.
