Astedt Busts Bogdanov
Online legend Niklas "Lena900" Astedt opened to 1,100 in early position and was faced with a three-bet to 2,500 from Yulian Bogdanov, who started the hand with around 12,000. Bogdanov called.
On the 3?5?2? flop Astedt check-called a bet of 1,200 from Bogdanov.
Astedt again checked on the Q? turn and Bogdanov put out a bet of 1,700.
Astedt produced the check-raise to 15,000, putting Bogdanov all-in if he called. Bogdanov did make the call for the meager rest of his stack but said "Aces?" to Astedt as he put his calling chips in and seemed to know he was behind.
Astedt did indeed turn over A?A? while Bogdanov had K?Q? for a pair of queens. The 6? completed the runout.
As Bogdanov got up he was chuckling and Astedt said "I had to let you catch up" with a smile.
