Ponakovs Flips for Tournament Life
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Gregory Fournier raised to 100,000 from the cutoff before Aleksejs Ponakovs made it 500,000 to go from the big blind, leaving 90,000 behind.
Fournier then went all in and Ponakovs made the call.
Aleksejs Ponakovs: A?Q?
Gregory Fournier: J?J?
The K?2?8? missed Ponakovs, but he made top pair on the Q? turn to take the lead. The 6? river bricked out and Ponakovs doubled up, leaving Fournier with just over ten big blinds.
