Akenhead Ahead Early

Christian Harder opened with a raise to 1,400 from under the gun only to find Paul Kemp three-bet the action to 3,300. James Akenhead had other thoughts, however, and moved a four-bet to 6,200 into the middle from the button. It folded back to Kemp who tossed out a call.

The flop was {7-Clubs}{A-Clubs}{4-Clubs} and Kemp checked. Akenhead continued with a bet of 8,100 and Kemp quickly shot his hand into the muck, awarding the November Niner the pot.
