Phakousonh Takes Out Akkari

Level 7 : 400/800, 0 ante
Andre Akkari
Andre Akkari

Andre Akkari was down to 550 but was able to double-up with the nut flush holding {a-Spades}{9-Spades} to give him some hope, but just a few hands later he was heading for the exit.

Akkari raised and was three-bet by Phanatda Phakousonh, which was enough to put the Brazilian all-in. Akkari made the call, and he needed help from the board.

Phanatda Phakousonh: {k-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Andre Akkari: {q-Hearts}{j-Spades}

Board: {5-Clubs}{8-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{2-Hearts}

Akkari was unable to improve his queen-high and was the next elimination from the event.
