Chidwick Gets a Four-Bet Through, Ponakovs Busts
Level 3
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs opened to 4,500 from under the gun on the short stack and Felipe Ketzer three-bet to 16,000 on his left. Stephen Chidwick stuck in a four-bet to 40,000 from the small blind and Ponakovs ran out of time, meaning his cards were mucked. Ketzer also folded and Chidwick scooped the pot.
Ponakovs was left with just 22,500 after the hand and was seen leaving the tournament area just shortly after.
