Blind Versus Blind
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Ghadi Akari woke up with a hand in the small blind and duked it out with the big blind.
Akari limped from the small blind before the big blind raised to 15,000. Akari shoved for 101,000 and was called after some deliberation by the big blind to put Akari at risk.
Ghadi Akari: J♦J♠
Opponent: K♥10♦
Akari stayed ahead on the 10♣Q♣A♥ flop, but he was far from in the clear as his opponents had outs to a straight and trips.
The 8♣ turn was safe, and Akari secured the double on the 7♠ river to stay in contention late on Day 1c.
