Akkari Doubles Through Corkins

Andre Akkari
Andre Akkari
We came to Andre Akkari's table in time to see him moving all in for 93,500 on the turn of a {4-Hearts} {5-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {7-Hearts} board. His raise was over the top of a lead bet from Hoyt Corkins. Corkins called with {Q-Hearts} {10-Hearts} and was surprised to find his hand more live than he had anticipated against Akkari's {8-Spades} {8-Clubs}. Corkins didn't hit, as the river fell {6-Spades} to make an unnecessary straight for Akkari. He doubled up to 247,000 while Corkins took the hit to 203,000.
