Ponakovs, Pardo Take Turns Doubling

Level 14 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs
Aleksejs Ponakovs

Aleksejs Ponakovs moved all in for 41,000 in the cutoff and Kayhan Mokri called in the big blind.

Aleksejs Ponakovs: Q♣9♠ All in
Kayhan Mokri: K♦3♣

Ponakovs took the lead on the A♠Q♦2♥ flop with a pair of queens, while the Q♥ turn improved him to trips. "You are so lucky. I run so bad," Mokri said before handing over the pot once the 10♣ completed the board.

Ponakovs then moved all in again the next hand and Juan Pardo called for 40,000 in the small blind.

Juan Pardo: 2♠2♣ All in
Aleksejs Ponakovs: A♠10♣

Pardo finished with a full house on the Q♦Q♠5♥6♦Q♣ board and this time it was Ponakovs who was forced to hand over the chips he had just won.
