Aknes Piles On The Pressure

Filipe Monteiro raises the button to 25k and, after checking his opponent's stack, Kristian Aknes makes the call in the big blind.

The flop is A♣ Q♣ 5♥ and Aknes auto-checks to his Portuguese opponent who bets 45k. Aknes then raises to 145k with a look of confidence eliciting the fold he may or may not have wanted.

Andre Aguilar has doubled up after Mikal Blomlie limped in with A♥ K♥ in the small blind but Aguilar did not raise in the big blind. Blomlie check/raised his opponent all-in on the 3&clubs 3♠ 5♠ flop but Aguilar had hit with J♣ 5♥ and dodged the ace and king on the turn and river to double up.
