Akremi Forces a Fold

Ryan Lashmar

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

A player in middle position limped in before Chadi Akremi raised to 900 from the hijack, receiving calls from players in the cutoff and small blind as well as the initial limper.

Action checked around to Akremi who bet 2,100 on the K?10?8? flop. The cutoff folded, the small blind called and the initial limper folded.

Both remaining players checked the 7? turn leading to the 9? river. The small blind checked and Akremi sized up with a bet of 10,000 into the pot which was approximately 8,000. The small blind declared that he had two pair and went into the tank. After about two minutes he folded 9?8? face up and Akremi took down a healthy pot without showdown.
