Online legend Niklas “Lena900” Astedt simply keeps on crushing 2021 by winning one major title after another.
The $5,200 Big 20 Rewind was one of the biggest highlights of last night’s Sunday Grind as it had a huge $300,000 Guarantee.

Due to the large $5,200 buy-in it was not surprising that the final table was full of crushers including German online bosses Christian “WATNlos” Rudolph and Claas “SSick_One” Seegebrecht, Mike “SirWatts” Watson, Talal “raidalot” Shakerchi and Portuguese online prodigy Rui “RuiNF” Ferreira.
However, none of them was able to overcome the currently strongest force in online poker Niklas “Lena900” Astedt. Once again the Swede came out on top and left the competition in the dust.
Heads-Up Astedt defeated German player “waldemarundich” to add another prestigious victory and a whopping $105,264,82 to his ever growing bankroll.
