Ackerman Gets Kings Cracked by Elias' "Favorite Hand"
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Christopher Ackerman opened from late position and Robert Elias three-bet jammed from the next seat. Ackerman quickly called with a bigger stack when the action got around.
Robert Elias:
Christopher Ackerman:
Ackerman had a big lead but the flop landed to give Elias a flush draw. The board then finished out and Elias received the unlikely double to put a beat on Ackerman.
"Gamble, gamble!" said Ren Lin.
"It's my favorite hand," Elias explained.
