Ponakovs Gets There on the River
Level 5
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Alex Foxen raised to 27,000 in early position with A♥K♠ and Aleksejs Ponakovs three-bet to 100,000 in the hijack holding A♣2♣. Foxen made the call.
The flop came 5♣3♦J♦ and Foxen check-called a bet of 86,000, bringing the K♥ turn.
Foxen checked again and Ponakovs bet 195,000, which Foxen called.
On the 4♠ river, Foxen checked once more and Ponakovs bet 650,000. Foxen quickly called and saw the bad news that Ponakovs had hit a wheel on the river.
