Akimov Ends Marchington's Title Defense
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
With around 30,000 in the pot on a board of J♠2♠7♣Q♥, Baurzhan Akimov bet 11,000 from the button and Nick Marchington called in the small blind.
The river was the Q♣ and Akimov moved all in. Marchington took a minute before calling for his last 50,000, and Akimov turned over K♥Q♠ for trips.
Marchington instantly tossed his cards into the muck, and the dealer had to retrieve his A♦7♦ after the defending champion had already left the table.
