Svach Catches Astedt Speeding
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Stanislav Zegal opened to 20,000 from the cutoff and was called by Pavel Svach on the button before Niklas Astedt squeezed to 90,000 from the small blind. Zegal got out of the way while Svach made the call.
The flop came 2♠3♠8♣ and Astedt fired a 75,000 continuation-bet that was called by Svach.
Astedt fired another barrel for 150,000 on the K♣ turn and once again Svach made the call.
On the A♣ river Astedt bet 250,000 and Svach snap-called.
Astedt was bluffing with Q♦7♦ while Svach had rivered a wheel straight with 5♦4♦ to take down a colossal pot while making a serious dent in Astedt's stack.
