Ponakovs Tries to Slowroll Chaoui, Loses Anyway; Mokri Takes Out Zubov

Level 15 : Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Alexander Zubov
Alexander Zubov

Mehdi Chaoui moved all in for 62,000 in early position and Aleksejs Ponakovs asked for a count before calling in the big blind.

Mehdi Chaoui: A♥A♠ All in
Aleksejs Ponakovs: A♣J♥

"I was slowrolling. I deserve it," Ponakovs said upon seeing Chaoui's aces. The board ran out Q♠9♦6♥6♠K♥ and Chaoui doubled up.

"Are we slowrolling? Because I want in on this game," Kayhan Mokri added.

Mokri then raised to 25,000 in the hijack and Alexander Zubov called in the big blind.

The flop came A♦10♥8♠ and Mokri bet 12,000. Zubov raised to 25,000, Mokri reraised to 38,000, and Zubov clicked back to 55,000. Mokri then moved all in.

"Am I getting slowrolled by ten-eight? This is the most obvious slowroll of all time," Mokri said as Zubov took a minute before calling for his last 60,000.

Alexander Zubov: Q♥10♣ All in
Kayhan Mokri: A♣2♣

Mokri was ahead with his pair of aces against Zubov's tens, and Zubov couldn't catch up on the 4♠ turn or 5♣ river,, and he was sent to the rail.
