Akbarpoor Gets Paid by Berk
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Abdullah Akbarpoor raised to 60,000 on the button and Michael Berk called in the small blind.
Akbarpoor continued for 55,000 on the 9♦7♠2♥ flop and Berk raised to 170,000. Akbarpoor came back with a reraise to 400,000, and Berk called.
Both players checked the 4♠ turn. Berk also checked the 6♠ river, and Akbarpoor then bet 350,000. Berk ended up using a few time banks as he tanked for a minute until calling, and Akbarpoor pumped his fist and turned over 9♠7♥ for two pair to win the big pot.
