Akkari Wins a Hand And Weisner is Eliminated

Andrew Akkari has dropped some chips since taking the early chip lead, but we have just encountered him winning a small pot. We joined the action on the flop of {A-Spades} {6-Spades} {J-Hearts} and Akkari check-called a 600 hijack bet from his position in the small blind. The {4-Clubs} on the turn was checked through before we saw the {7-Hearts} on the river. Akkari led for 1,150 and his opponent folded.

Meanwhile we have lost Melanie Weisner. The Heads-Up specialist jammed over a 900 raise for 4,000 and {A-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} and her opponent called with {A-Hearts} {K-Spades}. The board ran out {6-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {A-Diamonds} {Q-Clubs} and Weisner was out.
