Niklas Astedt
Niklas Astedt

Eliran Argelazi, Gabriel Nastasa, and Niklas Astedt saw a flop of 4710. Argelazi and Botteli checked to Astedt on the button. He bet 1,700 and only Argelazi called.

Both players chose to check the A turn to see the 8 appear on the river. Argelazi led out for 2,400 and got snap-called by Astedt.

Argelazi sheepishly showed QJ for just queen-high. Astedt won the pot with A2 for a turned pair of aces.

Andre Akkari
Andre Akkari

Picking up the action on the river, the board was reading 4597K when Alex Lynskey in the hijack bet 8,000 and was called by Kevin Rabichow in the cutoff. However Andre Akkari in the small blind check-raised all-in for 52,200. He made Lynskey fold, but Rabichow went deep into the tank.

"Action was check-raise on the flop and everybody checked the turn," a player at the table explained while Rabichow was trying to make a decision.

After approximately 5 minutes, Rabichow eventually decided to fold and Akkari discreetly revealed 33 for a very small flush.
