Akhundov Hits the Rail

Level 8 : 300/600, 75 ante

Murad Akhundov opened to 1,300 in middle position, Matthew Ashton, who final tabled the $10,000 H.O.R.S.E. World Championship at the 2011 World Series of Poker, three-bet to 3,325 on his direct left, and the action folded back to Akhundov, who called.

The flop fell {10-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{6-Spades}, Akhundov checked, and Ashton continued for 3,000. Akhundov check-raised to 13,000, Ashton moved all in for effectively 25,000 or so, and Akhundov called.

Akhundov: {k-Clubs}{j-Hearts}
Ashton: {q-Hearts}{q-Spades}

Akhundov failed to hit his open-ended straight draw as the turn and river came {8-Clubs}, {5-Clubs} respectively, and was eliminated. Ashton now has around 82,000 chips.
