Strandberg Scores Last Minute Winner
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Anders Strandberg opened the action with a raise to 3,000 from under the gun. Nicolas Nabet made the call from the cutoff, before Mauro Pomponi then shoved on his direct left for 16,700. Strandberg, undeterred, reshoved for a total of 29,200. Nabet pondered for a moment before folding.
Mauro Pomponi: A♣J♥ 
Anders Strandberg: J♠10♠
Pompini was happy to see that he was far ahead; however, he became far less so after seeing the 4♠6♠5♥ flop. "That's a good flop," noticed Strandberg. "I've equalized." Not only did he equalize, but he then went and scored late on, following a K♥ turn and 7♠ river. Pomponi was defeated and exited the table.
