Foxen Gains Chips; Astedt Leads to Take Lead
Level 37
: Blinds 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Diogo Coelho raised to 2,000,000 in early position and Kristen Foxen called on the button. The flop fell 8♦10♣6♠ and was checked by both. Coelho then bet 2,200,000 on the 8♠ turn and Foxen called.
The 5♣ river was knuckled down again, and Foxen's A♥Q♥ was the better ace-high at showdown, winning from Coelho's A♠2♠.
The next hand, Joe Serock raised his button to 2,100,000 and Niklas Astedt defended his big blind. Astedt checked the 2♠7♣3♣ flop, after which Serock bet 1,400,000. Astedt called and the 6♠ turn rolled off.
Astedt decided to lead out for 3,500,000 and received an instant fold from Serock, resulting in Astedt taking over the tournament chip lead from his opponent.
