Ponakovs On The Hook With a Bluff
Level 11
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Chalie Hook opened to 25,000 from the hijack and only Aleksejs Ponakovs made the call on the button.
The flop came 
and both players checked to the 
turn. Ponakovs led out for 30,000 and Hook came along to the 
river.
Ponakovs took a moment before announcing a bet of 105,000 and Hook went deep in the tank. After using several time bank cards, Hook tossed in a chip for the call.
Ponakovs tabled 
for a missed straight draw and Hook opened 
for the ace-high hero call, taking down the pot.
