Dupont Doubles Again

Samir Akhoullou limped in on the button and Peter Dupont glanced at his cards. Dupont decided to shove from the small blind. Jonas Van Baelen quickly folded his big blind and Akhoullou asked for a count. The dealer confirmed Dupont had 460,000 in front of him. Akhoullou called.

Peter Dupont: 6♠6♦
Samir Akhoullou: 8♦7♥

The flop came 6♥T♦3♠ to give Dupont a set of sixes and Akhoullou a gutshot to the straight draw.

The turn brought them the 5♣ to now also give Akhoullou an open-ended straight draw but the A♦ on the river didn’t change the situation and Dupont doubled up to just over a million.

Samir Akhoullou – 5,200,000
Peter Dupont – 1,080,000
