Third Pair Good for Astedt

Level 12
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Thomas Santerne appeared to call but instead min-raised blind on blind and Niklas Astedt defended his big blind.
Both players checked the K?J?2? flop and Q? turn. The river was the 9?.
Santerne checked and Astedt bet 20,000. Santerne thought before calling.
"Jack," said Astedt tabling J?8? and Santerne mucked.
"What just happened!" said tablemate Sam Grafton. "Did you just value bet third pair?"
"He knows me," said Santerne.
