Akenhead Coolers Roberts

Level 4 : 100/200, 25 ante

There was already about 20,000 in the pot with all five community cards face up. We don't know on which street went all the remaining money in, but the result was clear.

James Akenhead doubled through Lauren Roberts, holding {A-Hearts}{A-Spades} against {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}. The queen-high board brought no harm to Akenhead's bullets, and he had 8,775 behind. Roberts paid off the rest, giving Akenhead a big boost.
