Akopov Finishes Off Conan
Level 15
: 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
We happened upon the table with side action between Boris Akopov and Kevin Wang with Arthur Conan already all in. It appeared he got his short stack all in preflop as there was a main pot of around 40,000 and a side pot of 100,000 already brewing with a board reading 
.
Akopov bet 50,000 from the big blind and that was enough to get Wang to fold from the hijack.
Boris Akopov: 
Arthur Conan: 
Akopov was ahead with trip eights but Conan was drawing live to a flush. Unfortunately for the Frenchman, the 
river was no help and he made a beeline for the exit.
