Ponakovs Leaves Boivin With Crumbs; Mateos Finishes the Job

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

Thomas Boivin raised to 20,000 in early position before Aleksejs Ponakovs three-bet to 49,000 in the hijack. Boivin moved all in and Ponakovs snap-called.

Aleksejs Ponakovs: KK
Thomas Boivin: 99

Ponakovs had woken up with kings and no miracles arrived for Boivin on the 6104Q7 board. The stacks were counted down and Ponakovs had 331,000 remaining. Boivin had him covered by just 20,000 and handed over most of his stack.

Boivin moved all in the next hand, Adrian Mateos reraised to 37,000, and the rest of the table folded.

Thomas Boivin: 22
Adrian Mateos: JJ

Boivin had run into yet another bigger pair as the board ran out 3310Q8 to send him to the exit.
