Elyashar Cannot Shift Akenhead

We just witnessed David Elyashar trying to shift James Akenhead off a hand, and it cost him a lot of chips to find out the answer. We joined the action in a three-bet pot with Akenhead in mid-position and Elyashar seated in the big blind.

Elyashar fired three-barrels at Akenhead. 12,000 on the flop, 20,000 on the turn and 20,000 on the river. Akenhead went with his read and gobbled them up one by one. Elyashar knew he was beaten when he turned over {Q-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} and Akenhead showed {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} for the winning hand. It was a vital pot from Akenhead.
