Eric Rabl made a massive hero call in a hand that began with him opening and getting called by Niklas Astedt.
Rabl continued with a bet on the flop of 
and Astedt called. Rabl bet again on the 
turn and Astedt raised Rabl called.
Rabl checked on the 
and Astedt bet to put him all in. Rabl made the call. PokerNews arrived at the table as Astedt could only show 
for queen-high and Rabl showed 
for just a pair of fives.
The big call pushed Rabl over the million mark and left Astedt with less than three big blinds. The Swedish online grinder made a disappointed frown and gave Rabl a stare that lasted several seconds.
Two hands later, Astedt open-jammed his stack of 37,000 and was called by Jacob Amsellem in the big blind.

Jacob Amsellem: 
Things just weren't going Astedt's way as he ran into a hand that had him dominated. The board ran out 
and Amsellem's made two pair for Astedt to be eliminated.
