Ponakovs Beats Jaksland in Showdown
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Peter Jaksland has enjoyed a decent stack into Day 2 and increased his stack by more than half already. He then got involved in a hand with Aleksejs Ponakovs that was picked up on the K?10?5?3? turn. Jaksland checked and Ponakovs bet 11,000 on the button for the Dane to call.
Both knuckled the felt on the 2? river and Jaksland revealed his Q?J? for queen-high and a missed open-ended straight draw. Ponakovs had also missed the board but his A?Q? won the pot.
