Kosaku Akashi rails Pete Chen


Pete Chen

Short-stacked Pete Chen doubled up with K-4 both pairing up on the board against a player’s 3-3 but his stack was still very low. He moved all in on the next hand with his 16.5k, Kosaku Akashi joined in with his remaining 17k, and initial raiser Kentaro Somekawa called for a three-way showdown.
