Astarita's Coy Play Gets Extra Value
Level 31
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Giulio Astarita woke up with A?A? in the cutoff and bet 200,000. Tomasz Wrobel on the button made the call with J?10?.
The flop came K?Q?7?, which gave Wrobel the up-and-down straight draw. Astarita bet 150,000 and was called by the Pole.
The K? turn spooked Astarita who checked. Wrobel bet 325,000 and was called by the Italian.
The inconsequential 3? completed the board and Wrobel bet 700,000. Astarita looked pained but eventually found the call and Wrobel mucked his cards straight away.
