Level 9
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs raised to 8,000 from the hijack, and Kirill Shcherbakov defended from the big blind.
Shcherbakov checked the K♠K♣J♠ flop, and Ponakovs made a minimum bet of 4,000. Shcherbakov responded with a check-raise to 10,000, which Ponakovs called.
The 4♥ turn did little to slow Shcherbakov down, as he fired for 14,000. Once again, Ponakovs called.
The Q♠ completed the runout, and Shcherbakov checked. Ponakovs moved all in for his remaining 36,500, and Shcherbakov called.
Ponakovs tabled A♠3♠ for a flush to double-up, beating the trip kings of Shcherbakov, who held Kx2x.
