Akkari Counterfeited on the River
Level 33
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Action folded to Joao Sydenstricker in the small blind who limped in with J?10?. Andre Akkari checked 10?8? as both players hit a pair on the K?10?3? flop.
Sydenstricker and Akkari both checked to the 8? turn, where Akkari made two pair. Sydenstricker led out for 375,000 and Akkari called.
The K? river counterfeited Akkari's two pair and gave Sydenstricker the lead with his jack-kicker. He bet 425,000 and Akkari quickly called, only to be shown the unfortunate news by his countryman.
