Nicholas Mitchell opened to 23,000 from late position, and James Akenhead responded by shoving for 220,000 over the top. Mitchell called when it came back around to him, and his covering stack put Akenhead all in for his tournament life.
Showdown
Mitchell: 
Akenhead: 
The news was not good for Mr. Akenhead, but it would quickly improve. The dealer ran a flop fo 
to pull him in a big lead and put him two cards away from a big double up. The turn 
kept things kosher, but the river came the dramatic 
. That re-improves Mitchell to the best hand with trip jacks, and Akenhead can not stay alive.
He is out in 17th place.
