There is a raise from the cutoff before Gianluca Speranza three-bets to 6,800 on the button. The Speranza stack looks impressive, as does the stack in front of the man seated directly to his left. James Akenhead is that man, and he calmly raises the temperature with a four-bet to 14,800 in the small blind. The cut off folds and Speranza makes the quick call. The flop rains down [8h] [4s] [2h] and Akenhead drops 17,800 over the line forcing a fold from Speranza.

Akenhead ~ 180,000
Speranza ~ 160,000
