Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Andre Akkari raised to 500,000 under the gun with 5♥5♣ and received calls by small blind Simon Wiciak holding 5♠4♦ and Joao Sydenstricker in the big blind with 9♦8♦.
The 10♠J♠Q♦ flop gave Sydenstricker a straight as action checked to Akkari, who bet 625,000. Wiciak quickly folded, but Sydenstricker then moved all in.
Akkari, with 3,100,000 remaining, quickly folded as players prepared to head off on break.
