Coelho Squeezes; Serock Folds Out Astedt to Take Lead
Niklas Astedt opened to 1,600,000 from under the gun and dragged in the pot after nobody wanted to tangle with him.
On the next deal, it was Joe Serock's turn for a raise and take after his open to 1,600,000 went unanswered. He showed K♣Q♣.
Andres Gonzalez made it 1,600,000 from middle position, and he took down the pot uncontested.
Brian Kim raised to 1,700,000 from under the gun and Kristen Foxen called from two seats over with K♣10♣. Diogo Coelho three-bet to 7,200,000 from the small blind with A♦Q♥ and folded out Kim and Foxen.
Joe Serock opened to 1,600,000 with A♠10♠ from middle position before Niklas Astedt reraised to 5,000,000 from the cutoff with A♦9♣. Serock called. With 12,000,000 in the pot on the A♥Q♦10♥ flop, Serock check-called for 3,500,000. The 2♦ turn checked through to the 5♠ river. Serock led into the three-bettor, sizing to 13,000,000.
Astedt went deep into the tank, and settled on a fold, shipping the fold to Serock, who became the tournament chipleader as a result.
