Astedt Rises Back Up the Counts, Winz' Stack Tumbles
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
With around 70,000 chips in the pot on a board of 9♣A♠9♦4♦, Berthold Winz checked it over to Niklas Astedt, who bet 50,000. Winz called at lightning speed.
When the 5♥ dropped on the river, Winz checked again, then Astedt went with a big sizing of 150,000. Winz needed just a few seconds to think, but did eventually call.
Astedt then showed 9♠7♥ for trip nines, and Winz laughed as he tabled A♥Q♦ for a pair of aces.
