The King of Brazil Eliminated

Andre Akkari
Andre Akkari

Well, Brazilian poker, at least. Andre Akkari is likely the most well-known player in this entire country, but that's not going to do anything for his chip stack, unfortunately.

Akkari was down under 6,000 when he shoved in with {2-Hearts} {2-Clubs}. A few seats over, a gentleman reraised to isolate himself against Akkari, and his {Q-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} had the Team PokerStars Pro in a bad spot. He had a sweat by the time the turn fell on the {6-Spades} {6-Diamonds} {4-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} board, but the river {K-Spades} was a blank.

That's the end of the road for Brazil's chosen one, and Akkari has been sent to the rail here just before dinner time.
