Akenhead Doubles Again

Adam York sees James' top set of Kings
Adam York sees James' top set of Kings
James Akenhead has just picked up his second double up of the day. We pick up the action in a heads-up raised pot with a flop coming down {4-Clubs} {K-Spades} {J-Clubs}. Adam York checked first to speak, and Akenhead put out a bet of 420,000. After some deliberation, York moved all in with his big stack and Akenhead snap-called for his own tournament life.

Showdown
Akenhead: {K-Hearts} {K-Diamonds}
York: {A-Clubs} {J-Hearts}

Top set had a near lock on the hand, and the turn {7-Hearts} would secure the double up for Akenhead. For the second time in a couple hours, Akenhead vaults up the leader board, sitting now with right at 4,000,000.
