Akimov Busts; We're In The Money!

Level 18 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Akim Akimov was all in for his last 77,000 before the flop when we came to the table. Tom Christopher was pondering his action and eventually decided to call.

Akimov: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}
Christopher: {K-Hearts}{J-Hearts}

The two were racing for Akimov's tournament life heading to the flop. The dealer fanned {2-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} on the felt and suddenly it looked bleak for Akimov. The {6-Clubs} turned and Akimov was left hoping to spike an eight on the river. Alas, the dealer produced the {J-Clubs} and Akimov's fate was sealed as our bubble boy.

Every remaining player is now guaranteed at least $2,722 in tournament winnings.
