Andre Akkari was all in and at risk of elimination while he had {5-}{4-}{2-}{2-} open in front of him. Allen Kessler was still involved in the hand with {10-}{9-}{6-}{3-} against the {k-}{9-}{8-}{5-} of a third player in the hand.

Kessler got out of the way and Akkari mucked his hand when he was shown {7-}{4-}{2-} to make an eighty-seven for his opponent. He got up from his chair and was heading for the rail shortly after.
