Niklas Astedt

Carlos Branco bet 5,100 from the small blind on {4-Spades}{j-Spades}{3-Hearts} and Niklas Astedt made it 13,500 in the hijack. Branco called and they took in the {a-Spades} turn. Branco check-called 18,500 this time, and the river was the {j-Diamonds}. Branco checked and Astedt moved in for 31,300.

"This isn't a slowroll," Branco assured after getting the count.

He did call, showing {q-Spades}{10-Spades} when Astedt indicated it was a bluff. The dealer turned over Astedt's {9-Hearts}{6-Hearts}.

According to players at the table, Konstantin Farber opened under the gun, one player called and Jean-Noel Thorel put in a squeeze on the button to 8,000. Farber moved in and Thorel called off for 62,000 or so.

Konstantin Faber: {q-Hearts}{q-Clubs}
Jean-Noel Thorel: {a-Spades}{a-Diamonds}

Thorel's bullets had him in good shape for a double, as did the {3-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{j-Clubs} that hit the felt. However, the {q-Spades} river had him tossing his chips into the middle in frustration as he hurried to the door.
