Ponakovs Slow Plays a Monster; Mateos Exits

Level 12 : Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante

With around 75,000 in the pot on a flop of {10-Spades}{k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}, Christoph Vogelsang bet 16,000 from the cutoff and was called by Aleksejs Ponakovs under the gun.

The turn came the {4-Clubs} and Ponakovs checked again. Vogelsang bet 42,000 and Ponakovs called once more to see the {9-Spades} on the river.

Ponakovs checked for a third time and Vogelsang checked behind. Ponakovs turned over {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts} for flopped trips and Vogelsang mucked.

At another table, Adrian Mateos was eliminated in 25th place to bring the field down to three tables.
