A Few Pots For Lisandro and Akkari; Bardah Angered

Intrepid reporter Shamus brought you news of the Andre Akkari slide earlier. The Brazlian currently has 23,500 chips, which is below average, but we have just seen him take down a few minor pots.

In the first hand we joined it on a flop of {9-Spades} {5-Spades} {10-Diamonds} , Akkari bet out of the big blind and Chris Roth called in the cutoff. The same action occurred when we saw the {K-Spades} on the turn before the action ground to a halt on the {3-Hearts} river. Akkari showed down {J-Spades} {9-Hearts} and it was enough to win the pot.

Then Akkari raised from the button holding {K-Hearts} {7-Hearts} and won a hand versus the big blind when neither player put in a bet on a board of {J-Spades} {9-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} .

Jeff Lisandro also has a below average stack (24,500) but just like Akkari we just saw him win a few pots. Lisandro raised from the hijack and then called a three-bet from the button. The flop was {K-Clubs} {J-Clubs} {9-Diamonds} and Lisandro came in with a check-raise to win the pot.

Then Lisandro and Ruslan Dykshteyn had a tete-a-tete in the blinds. The flop was {Q-Hearts} {Q-Clubs} {2-Hearts} and Lisandro check-called a Dykshteyn bet. The turn {6-Hearts} checked through and Lisandro gleaned one additional bet on the {J-Diamonds} . Lisandro showed down {Q-Spades} {4-Diamonds} and Dykshteyn folded.

"Quality" Dan Alspach has been playing poker a long time and he would rather be lucky than good. We just witnessed him getting it in against Ronnie Bardah on a board of {J-Spades} {3-Hearts} {5-Spades} {10-Diamonds} . When the cards were turned over Alspach was dominated.
