Hands #126-128: Astedt Sizes Up Against Griff in Blind Battle
Hand #126: Jonathan Tamayo A♠3♠ opened to 6,000,000 and Boris Angelov got through with a shove for 50 million in the big blind with J♥9♥
Hand #127: Jordan Griff raised to 6,000,000 from under the gun with A♣K♠ and Niklas Astedt defended the big blind with K♦5♣ to a flop of Q♠10♦8♣. Both players checked to the 9♣ turn on which Astedt led for 4,500,000. Griff went into a brief tank before he raised it up to 10,500,000, Astedt folded.
Hand #128: Astedt limped the small blind with A♦7♦ and Griff 8♣5♣ checked to the A♣3♦2♠ flop. Astedt bet 3,000,000 and Griff called as they headed to the 7♣ on the turn. The Swede now sized up to 12,000,000 and Griff called after some consideration.
The board paired with the 7♥ river and Astedt bet 40,000,000 into a pot of 39,000,000. Griff laid down his hand and Astedt pulled further ahead again.
