Gulyy Takes a Bite Out of Akkari's Stack

Level 18 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante

After Team PokerStars Pro Andre Akkari opened with a raise from middle position, Yury Gulyy three-bet all in for roughly 80,000 from the button. Both blinds folded, Akkari called, and the cards were turned up.

Gulyy: {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}
Akkari: {a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}

The {7-Spades}{9-Hearts}{8-Spades} flop made things interesting as Akkari flopped an open-ended straight draw, but the running {Q-Clubs} turn and {Q-Diamonds} river proved safe for Gulyy to give him the double.
