Akkari Under Pressure

Level 6 : 200/500, 500 ante

Andre Akkari from the under-the-gun position and Ludovic Geilich in late position created a big pot and headed to the {a-Spades}{10-Hearts}{6-Spades}{a-Clubs}{7-Hearts} river. Akkari had checked and faced a bet of 20,000 by Geilich, which ultimately forced a fold from the PokerStars ambassador.

With the arrival of Ryan Riess not long ago and Kristen Bicknell just now, it will get even tougher for the Brazilian to boost up his stack again.
