Astedt Flushed Out
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
On the turn with the board showing A♠4♣8♥6♣, Matthias Auer was first to act from the small blind and put out a bet that was big enough to put Niklas Astedt all in. Astedt had roughly 9,000 in his stack and after thinking it over for a few moments, put in the call.
Niklas Astedt: Q♠8♠ 
Matthias Auer: A♣J♣
Auer was ahead with top pair, but Astedt could hit a non-club queen or eight on the river to win the hand. The dealer put out the 2♣ on the river to give Auer the nut flush, and Astedt was sent home.
