Mameche Says Au Revoir
Level 25
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs opened to 80,000 from the button and called when perennial short stack Slimane Mameche moved all in for 195,000 from the big blind.
Slimane Mameche: A♣9♥
Aleksejs Ponakovs: 6♥5♥
Mameche was ahead and improved to a pair of aces on the A♦8♥3♠ flop; however, the 4♠ turn gave Ponakovs outs to the straight.
Mameche called for a ten, but the 2♥ river gave Ponakovs the straight the seal the bust-out.
