Suarez Wins an All-Swede Coin Flip

Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Anton Suarez raised to 10,000 in the cutoff before Niklas Astedt three-bet to 35,000 in the big blind. Suarez then moved all in for 140,000 and Astedt snap-called.
Anton Suarez: 8?8?
Niklas Astedt: A?Q?
The flop came 8?3?4? and Suarez spiked a set to leave Astedt drawing only to running cards. The turn was the J? and Astedt was already drawing dead as the Q? arrived too late to avoid him handing over a double up.
