Sundbo Benefits From Counterfeit

Sverre Sundbo, during Day 1
Sverre Sundbo, during Day 1
A player in late position opened with a raise to 2,000 and Sverre Sundbo made the call in the small blind.

They saw a flop of {10-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} and Sundbo check-called the 5,000 chip bet of his opponent. The turn brought the {5-Hearts} and this time Sundbo led out for 5,000 and his opponent flat-called.

The river landed the {10-Clubs} and Sundbo checked to his opponent who fired 10,000. Sundbo snap-called and showed {A-?}{J-?}. His ace played as his opponent showed pocket sixes, having been counterfeited on the river.

Sundbo is now up to 44,000.
