Ponakovs Outkicks Faria, Climbs Back to Start
Nível 4
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs and Luis Faria were battling over a 34,000-chip pot when the 3♠8♦A♥K♠ board was on the table. Faria checked from under the gun and Ponakovs put in 11,500 chips from the cutoff.
Faria inquired about his opponent's stack, after which he made the call. The 4♥ river then fell and both players checked it down. Faria showed A♦9♥ for top pair, but Ponakovs had the best hand with his A♠J♠ for a higher kicker.
