PartyPoker Tour Ambassador Sam Acheampong made it 5,500. Natalia Breviglieri made the call from the Button before Curtis Harrison moved all in for 51,000 from the Small Blind. “How much is that?” Acheampong requested the dealer. After receiving the final number, he made the call, committing a large chunk of his stack. Breviglieri mucked, and the two contestants went to showdown.
Curtis Harrison: A♥10♠
Sam Acheampong: [invalid notations]
“Hooooold!” Acheampong’s iconic catch phrase echoed through the tournament area. He wasn’t ahead for long as Harrison took the lead on the J♣A♦2♠ flop. No case seven for Acheampong as the board completed with 9♣3♠. Harrison doubled up, leaving Acheampong weak.
At the same time, at a nearby table, fellow ambassador Glenn Brown busted from the tournament after losing an all-in pre-flop with J♥J♠ against his opponent’s A♦K♣.
Curtis Harrison: 106,000
Sam Acheampong: 29,000
Glenn Brown: 0
