Akbas Puts Khadra in the Blender

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Halil Akbas opened to 45,000 from the button and received a call from Hadi Khadra in the big blind.

Khadra checked in the dark as the A?5?2? flop was dealt. Akbas fired an 100,000 continuation bet and Khadra made the call.

Both players checked the A? turn leading to the 6? river. Khadra checked and Akbas moved all in for 161,000, sending Khadra deep into the tank.

Khadra cut out calling chips from his stack and looked at his opponent for a reaction. After a couple minutes Khadra ultimately decided to fold and Akbas took down the sizable pot without showdown.
