Blom Among First to Exit After Three-Way Cooler
Level 15
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Viktor Blom, Leonard Maue, and Niklas Astedt had gotten all of their chips in preflop. Blom was the one with the shortest stack, while Maue played the starting stack of 500,000 and Astedt covered them both.
Viktor Blom: A♠K♠
Leonard Maue: A♦A♣
Niklas Astedt: K♥K♣
Astedt claimed he liked his chances, but the final king did not show itself on the 10♣2♥7♣3♦Q♠ runout. Maue's aces held without a sweat, and he tripled up while Blom headed for an early exit.
On another table, Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier was also eliminated.
