Ponakovs Makes Tough Call
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
With over 250,000 in the middle already, the board read 8?4?2?7? and Aleksejs Ponakovs fired 90,000. Daniel Dvoress was the only opponent in the hand and made the call.
The 6? fell on the river and Ponakovs checked before Dvoress fired 215,000. Ponakovs went deep into the tank, using several time banks, but eventually made the call.
Dvoress tabled A?8? and Ponakovs let out a sigh of relief as he rolled over the J?3? for a flush.
