Phan Forces a Fold

Level 12 : 800/1,600, 1,600 ante

On a raised pot and a blind-versus-blind situation, the flop was showing {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} when James Akenhead bet 5,500. Ryan Phan made the call and both players checked on the {8-Hearts} turn.

The river fell a {7-Diamonds} and Akenhead bet for 12,500. After some thinking, Phan chose to raise it to 31,000, putting Akenhead into a big decision. The latter ended up folding his hand and now has a stack worth 83,000.
