Just a Minor Headache for Akenhead

Following a flop of {A-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}, the player under the gun bet 15,000 and James Akenhead made the call. Both checked the {8-Diamonds} turn.

The river brought the {5-Spades}. Akenhead's opponent bet 30,000 this time, and Akenhead thought for a while before making the call. His opponent showed {A-Hearts}{J-Clubs}, and Akenhead mucked.

Losing that small one doesn't bother Akenhead too much as he is still way up there with 665,000.
