Level 17 : Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Duco ten Haven
Duco ten Haven

Aleksejs Ponakovs opened 80,000 in the hijack, and Duco ten Haven three-bet to 525,000 next to act, leaving just 45,000 behind. The action quickly folded around to Ponakovs who announced all-in, and was called instantly.

Duco ten Haven: AK
Aleksejs Ponakovs: JJ

The A32 flop gave Ten Haven a pair of aces to take the lead, and the 5 turn missed both players but gave Ponakovs a chance to split the pot. The 9 however, was a brick and Ten Haven remained seated.
