Davis Pays Off Ponakovs

Level 11 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Action came in on the river with the board reading {q-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{j-Spades}{2-Spades}{7-Clubs}. Aleksejs Ponakovs made a near pot-size bet of 20,500 into a pot of about 22,000 from the big blind.

Mark Davis was under the gun and called after some thought.

Ponakovs tabled the {q-Spades}{9-Spades} which was the winner as Davis mucked.
