Kaukua Stays Active, Takes Out Akbas
Level 2
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Halil Akbas raised to 2,000, Toni Kaukua three-bet to 12,000 in the small blind, and Akbas called.
The flop came 10♦Q♥2♣ and Kaukua led out for 7,000. Akbas called to the 9♦ turn, where Kaukua bet another 15,000.
Akbas again called and the 6♥ fell on the river. Kaukua then bet 55,000 to put Akbas all in. Akbas tanked for a minute before calling as Kaukua showed K♠J♥ for a turned straight. Akbas' cards went into the muck as he headed off to the rail.
