Astedt Smacks the River to Double
Nivel 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Niklas Astedt raised to 60,000 in early position, leaving himself 30,000 behind, as action folded to Stanislav Zegal in the big blind. He tanked for a minute before moving all in and Astedt quickly called for his last chips.
Niklas Astedt: A♥4♦ 
Stanislav Zegal: A♣9♦
A collective gasp arose from the table when the flop came 7♠5♥3♦ to give Astedt some hope with a straight draw. The 10♦ turn kept Zegal in the lead and left Astedt one card away from elimination, but he spiked the 2♠ on the river to make a straight and double up.
