Akimov Doubles Through Efe
Level 32
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Baurzhan Akimov moved all in from under the gun before it folded to Aziz Efe in the small blind. He sat in the tank and pondered a call long enough that the clock was called. Before time expired he put in the call and the cards hit their backs with Akimov at risk.
Baurzhan Akimov: Q♣9♣
Aziz Efe: J♣J♠
The 8♠9♠6♣ flop was clean for Efe but the Q♥ turn would catapult Akimov into the lead. The 5♥ river sealed the deal and Akimov earned a pure double to basically be tied in chips with his opponent in this hand.
