Thorel's Set of Tens Helps Him Gain Chips
Level 6
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Niklas Astedt made it 9,000 from the button and Jean-Noel Thorel three-bet to 22,000 out of the big blind. Astedt made the call.
Thorel made a continuation-bet of 35,000 on the A♣8♣6♣ flop, and Astedt stuck around with a call.
The 10♠ on the turn caused Thorel to toss out one green chip, which was worth a bet of 25,000. Astedt raised to 95,000, and Thorel instantly called.
Both players checked the 5♥ river and Thorel turned over 10♣10♦ for a turned set of tens to win the pot.
At a nearby table, Morten Klein was seen leaving his seat and has been eliminated from the tournament.
