Lucky River For Akshuta

Level 23 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

After a shove in early position for 100,000 chips, Etay Akshuta in the hijack pushed all his chips in the middle too, for 380,000 chips. An amount that Yang Zhang, in the big blind, called.

Early Position Player: A?3?
Etay Akshuta: K?Q?
Yang Zhang: 8?8?

This hand almost ended as it started, as Yang Zhang's pair was still in the lead on 5?J?9?3?. But the K? on the river permitted Akshuta to stay in the tournament and almost triple his stack.

In his pursuit of a second WSOP bracelet this summer, Yang Zhang stayed over one million chips. However, the player in early position was eliminated in this hand.
