Akenhead's Makin' Bacon

Level 4 : 150/300, 25 ante

James Akenhead is on the march, moving up to more than 70,000 in chips after a huge pot on the feature table played out just before he was balanced to another table.

Akenhead raised from the UTG +1 and the action folded to an opponent in middle position who reraised, forcing the others out of the way before Akenhead called to go heads-up to a flop that read {3-Spades}{A-Clubs}{K-Hearts}.

Akenhead checked, the player led out for 2,400 and Akenhead called before check-calling again on the turn of the {8-Clubs} after the player fired out a second shell worth 5,600. Both players then checked the river of the {A-Diamonds} and Akenhead turned up {10-Spades}{10-Hearts}, confident that he was ahead.

He was right - the opponent threw his hand into the muck. Akenhead is now on table 33.
