Akkari Drills The Turn (And River) to Eliminate Ascone
Level 22
: 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Mihai Niste opened to 40,000 from middle position and was called by Andre Akkari in the small blind. Agostino Ascone then shoved for 160,000 from the big blind, which got a fold from Niste, but a call from Akkari to put Ascone at risk.
Agostino Ascone: 6♣6♥
Andre Akkari: 4♠4♣
The 2♣J♣J♥ flop left Ascone with a commanding lead in the hand, but the 4♦ turn vaulted Akkari into the lead with a full house, which left Ascone fuming. The 4♥ improved Akkari to unnecessary quads and Ascone was eliminated in brutal fashion.
