Two-Outer Saves Akkari

Level 21
: 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
In the most classic of races, PokerStars Team Pro Andre Akkari got all the chips into the middle preflop against fellow Brazilian Felipe Boianovsky.
Andre Akkari: Q?Q?
Felipe Boianovsky: A?K?
The A?2?7? flop wiped out Akkari's preflop advantage, and the 4? turn didn't offer much hope. However, salvation came in the form of the Q? on the river, giving Akkari a crucial double and leaving Boianovsky short.
