Level 9
: 500/1,000, 100 ante
Andre Akkari is building up a chip stack in the late stages of Day 1. He's getting lucky when he needs to and otherwise playing aggressively and playing position well. Akkari had the button for a raised ace-high flop, 
. His lone opponent bet 6,000 into the 8,000-chip pot. He called, leading to the 
turn. Both players checked. When the under-the-gun player also checked the 
river, Akkari put out a bet of 10,000. That bet folded his opponent and won Akkari another pot.
