Astedt's Underpair to the Board Is Good
Level 4
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Niklas Astedt raised to 5,000 from under the gun and Mikael Thuritz three-bet to 20,000 from the small blind. Astedt called.
The 4♦5♣Q♥ flop checked through to the 9♥ on the turn and the 6♥ on the river. Both players checked to a showdown.
"Ace-king," announced Thuritz, prompting Astedt to table 3♦3♠ for an unpair to the board; good enough to take down this pot.
