Akbas Puts Khadra in the Blender
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Halil Akbas opened to 45,000 from the button and received a call from Hadi Khadra in the big blind.
Khadra checked in the dark as the A♠5♦2♣ flop was dealt. Akbas fired an 100,000 continuation bet and Khadra made the call.
Both players checked the A♣ turn leading to the 6♥ river. Khadra checked and Akbas moved all in for 161,000, sending Khadra deep into the tank.
Khadra cut out calling chips from his stack and looked at his opponent for a reaction. After a couple minutes Khadra ultimately decided to fold and Akbas took down the sizable pot without showdown.
