Akkari Flush'd

With around 5,000 in the pot and a board reading {10-Hearts}{K-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{2-Spades}, Andre Akkari was faced with an all in from one of his opponents to the total of 5,350.

"How much do you have?" Akkari asked Neil Channing who was also in the hand.

Channing uttered something in his English tone before Akkari returned to a deep thought.

Eventually he cut out the chips to make the call and dropped them in front of his cards as Channing quickly tossed his cards into the muck - similar to the way his country's soccer team let their World Cup bid slip just a few nights ago!

Akkari tapped the table and slid his cards into the muck at the sight of his opponent's {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts} as he slipped to just 3,800 in chips.
