Solver Hand Helps Asmolov Get Rid of Strobel
Level 17
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Timofey Asmolov made it 25,000 from middle position before Adrian Strobel three-bet to around 75,000 from the hijack. After the blinds folded, Asmolov burned through two of his time banks before four-bet ripping it for Strobel's stack of around 500,000. Strobel snap-called.
Adrian Strobel: A♦K♥ 
Timofey Asmolov: A♣5♣
Asmolov turned over his ace-five and one of his tablemates said, "Solver hand bro!".
Asmolov was in rough shape against Strobel's big slick and found no help on the A♠7♠3♦ flop as Strobel's king-kicker kept him out in front. Asmolov picked up a straight draw when the 6♦ hit the turn. The dealer peeled off the 5♠ on the river, giving Asmolov two pair and sending Strobel to the exit just shy of the money.
