Afriat Turns a Set and Jams Into Ponakovs
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs made it 80,000 to go with the K?Q? from early position, Eric Afriat (2?2?) on the button and Ami Barer (8?6?) in the big blind called.
Afriat was still ahead with his mighty pair on the J?7?4? and it checked to him, he bet 100,000 and Ponakovs was the only caller. The 2? turn gave Afriat bottom set and he checked behind to see the A? on the river.
Ponakovs used one time bank and then bet 165,000 into 500,000. The bet size was barely confirmed by the dealer when Afriat had already moved all in, forcing out Ponakovs with his king-high.
