Astedt Flushed Out
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
On the turn with the board showing A?4?8?6?, Matthias Auer was first to act from the small blind and put out a bet that was big enough to put Niklas Astedt all in. Astedt had roughly 9,000 in his stack and after thinking it over for a few moments, put in the call.
Niklas Astedt: Q?8? 
Matthias Auer: A?J?
Auer was ahead with top pair, but Astedt could hit a non-club queen or eight on the river to win the hand. The dealer put out the 2? on the river to give Auer the nut flush, and Astedt was sent home.
