Great Call

It was no fluke that Magnus Persson made the final table in this event in 2007 if a call he just made against Rob Akery is anything to go by. Persson raised to 4,800 from the hijack and called Akery's 11,200 three-bet from the SB. The flop came down {10-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{k-Spades} and Akery led for 14,200. Call. Both players checked the {q-Spades} turn before Akery bet 33,000 on the {q-Hearts} river when checked to him. Persson took a few minutes then made the call.

Akery could only muster {8-Diamonds}{9-Spades}, behind to Persson's {10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}. Akery down to 98,000 whereas Persson is up to 152,000.
