Akkari Wins More

Level 20 : 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante

David Peters limped in from the button and Joao Simao completed his small blind. Andre Akkari decided to check his big blind.

The flop came {9-Spades}{8-Clubs}{a-Clubs}, both Simao and Akkari checked. Peters bet 25,000 and Simao called. Akkari raised to 150 which only Peters called.

They both checked through the {6-Clubs} on the turn and the {q-Spades} on the river for Akkari to scoop the pot with {a-Hearts}{k-Clubs} for the flopped pair of aces.
