Akenhead Out-Kicks the Competition

On a flop of {J-Hearts}{7-Spades}{7-Clubs}, the big blind led out for 350 and James Akenhead called from late position. The turn was the {9-Clubs} and the big blind bet another 550. Akenhead called. The river fell the {Q-Hearts} and the big blind slowed down and checked. Akenhead bet 350 and the big blind called.

Akenhead turned over {A-Diamonds}{J-Clubs}. The big blind was apparently in kicker trouble as he flashed the {J-Spades} before sending his cards into the muck.

Akenhead is up to 31,000.
