Around 200,000 was already in the middle as Abdullah Akbarpoor and Nicolas Chouity went to the turn on a board of 4?J?2?9?. Akbarpoor then bet 125,000 from the hijack and Chouity moved all in on the button.
Akbarpoor quickly called for his last 250,000 and turned over 8?6? for a flush draw. Chouity had A?A? and Akbarpoor missed the J? river on his way to the rail as the EPT champion raked in the big pot.
