Ponakovs Wins Big Agains Betbese
Level 13
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
The action was caught on a turn of 5♦7♠K♠7♦. Aleksejs Ponakovs checked from the big blind in a pot of 139,000. Nicolas Betbese then made a tiny bet of 13,000 in the cutoff, which Ponakovs called.
The 9♣ river was quickly checked down. Ponakovs tabled 9♥5♠, and his nines and sevens took down the pot when Betbese shook his head and tossed his cards into the muck.
