Badziakouski Sends Ponakovs into the Tank

Ryan Lashmar

Niveau 9 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Aleksejs Ponakovs opened to 6,000 from middle position and Mikita Badziakouski defended from the big blind.

Both players checked the K♣10♠6♠ flop leading to the 6♥ turn. Badziakouski bet 12,000 and Ponakovs made the call.

On the 3♦ river Badziakouski bet again, this time for 32,000. Ponakovs used four time banks before flicking in the call.

Badziakouski tabled K♦10♥ for two pair, kings and tens and Ponakovs quickly mucked.
