Neagoe Drills the Turn to Bust Akeh
Level 20
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Ashraf Akeh limped from the hijack and Darius Neagoe raised to 40,000 from the cutoff. After the rest of the table folded, Akeh called to see a flop.
When the flop came down 9♦9♥8♣ Akeh shoved for around 70,000 and Neagoe called.
Ashraf Akeh: 6♣6♠
Darius Neagoe: A♠10♠
Akeh had shoved when the safe flop had fallen and just needed to fade the turn and river to double. However, the A♣ turn propelled Neagoe into the lead with top pair. The 10♣ river didn't help Akeh, and he was sent to the rail.
