Petersen Pulls Into Commanding Lead
Level 23
: 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
On a flop of 
, Alexander Petersen checked and Anson Tsang bet 125,000, Petersen called. The 
fell on the turn and Petersen checked once more. Tsang bet the pot for 360,000 and the Dane called.
On the 
river, Petersen bet 800,000 into 1.08 million and Tsang was sent into the think tank. He eventually folded and Petersen flashed the cards to his rail, chatting with them in Danish, before revealing them to Tsang also. It was the 
for bottom two pair and a busted flush draw.
By scooping that pot, Petersen pulled into a 3-1 lead.
