Akenhead Takes On Ruzicka
Level 17
: 2,000/4,000, 500 ante
Vojtech Ruzicka raised to 9,000 from the cutoff. James Akenhead three-bet to 31,000 from the small blind and Ruzicka called. The flop came down 
. Akenhead continued with a bet of 18,000 and Ruzicka called again.
The 2009 November Niner checked the turn, prompting the 2016 November Niner to bet 35,000. Akenhead spent nearly four minutes in the tank before shoving all in for 74,500.
A visibly disgusted Ruzicka spent a minute in the tank, but even with the tempting odds the Czech couldn't make the call and folded.
