Akkari Folds to Trips on Board
Level 11
: 1,500/3,000, 300 ante
Razz
We found Andre Akkari betting into an opponent with a pair of eights on board, but Ashish Gupta wasn't deterred. He called a bet and then took the lead on fifth when Akkari caught a king.
Gupta: 
/ 
Akkari: / 
Both players checked sixth, when Gupta found himself sporting trips, and Akkari checked the river as well. Gupta fired in a bet, and Akkari thought briefly before folding. Gupta showed 
for a nine-eight, so Akkari's fold was a good one.
