Cowboys Deflect the Bullets

James Akenhead reached a flop of {4-Spades}{J-Spades}{K-Hearts} where he led out for 650. His neighbour called. Once both players had checked the {9-Hearts} turn, Akenhead check-folded to a bet of 700 on the {5-Clubs} river, before showing what I believe was pocket aces. His opponent returned the favour by revealing pocket kings in the hole for the flopped set.

Akenhead still has his head well above water, however, with 9,500.
