Ponakovs Burns Through His Time Banks, Then Takes Out Skrbic
Level 8
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
With around 50,000 in the pot on a flop of Q?4?2?, Milos Skrbic bet 15,000 from the cutoff and Aleksejs Ponakovs called under the gun.
Skrbic bet another 40,000 on the 7? turn and Ponakovs again called. The river was the 8? and Skrbic moved all in for 141,000.
Ponakovs used up all of his remaining time banks as he tanked for several minutes, eventually putting in the chips to call. Skrbic immediately tapped the felt and turned over A?K? for just ace-high, while Ponakovs had K?Q? for a pair of queens to win the pot and send Skrbic to the rail.
Dimitar Danchev was also recently eliminated by Team PokerStars Pro Elias Gutierrez.
