Fonacier Shoves on Akenhead to Hit 1 Million

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

James Akenhead opened from middle position with a raise to 28,000 and action folded to the small blind where Erwin Fonacier reraised, making it 60,000. Akenhead called and the two headed to a flop.

The flop was {Q-Spades}{9-Spades}{8-Clubs} and Fonacier led out with a bet of 100,000. Akenhead called.

On the {10-Hearts} turn, Fonacier slowed down with a check. Akenhead put out a bet of 175,000 and Fonacier dropped into the tank. After a few minutes of thought, he moved all in over the top for about 400,000 total. Akenhead made a sour face, then quickly folded his hand, allowing Fonacier to take down the pot and to move right around 1 million chips.
