Chen Folds Out Ponakovs

Level 2 : 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante

Action was picked up on the turn which read {9-Spades}{j-Spades}{10-Spades}{9-Hearts}. New entry, James Chen bet 18,000 from the big blind and was called by Aleksejs Ponakovs from early position.

The river came the {7-Hearts}. Chen fired again, this time for 60,000 which was too high of a price for Ponakovs who shut it down and folded.
