Akhoullou Turns a Set
Christophe De Meulder raised to 375,000 from the button and Samir Akhoullou three-bet to 1,000,000. De Meulder glanced at Akhoullou and called.
The flop came 6♣7♦9♥, Akhoullou continued with a bet of 800,000 which De Meulder called.
They both checked through the T♦ on the turn to the J♣ on the river to complete the board. Akhoullou fired another 1,000,000 bet over the line and De Meulder tanked. He grabbed some purple 500,000-value chips and started riffling them. He stared at Akhoullou and the board several times, then cut out two of the purple chips and put them in as a call.
Akhoullou tabled T♥T♠ for the turned set of tens to scoop the pot.
Christophe De Meulder – 12,000,000
Samir Akhoullou – 9,000,000
