Keating Thinks Better of Bluffing Akkari

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

Andre Akkari bet 10,000 from the small blind into Sylvain Loosli and Alex Keating, on a flop of {7-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}. Both players called, and the turn came the {5-Diamonds}.

Akkari bet another 13,000 on the turn, and Loosli folded from the hijack. Keating called from the button, and the river came the {3-Clubs}. Akkari checked this time, and Keating thought it over for awhile before checking back.

Akkari showed {k-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} for the king-high flush. Keating told Akkari that he thought about bluffing on the river, but in this case it's probably a good thing he just checked back.
