Ashton Forces Fold from Makaci
Level 14
: 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Joining the action on the 
flop, World Series of Poker bracelet winner Matthew Ashton bet 12,500 out of the small blind and called a small raise by Franck Makaci. The duo then headed to the 
turn and Ashton shoved for 54,000. Makaci gave it some thought and counted his remaining stack, then folded and mentioned in table chat he feared ace-king.
Ashton raked in the pot with a smile and both players are now almost even in chips.
