Foxen Picks-Off Big River Bluff, Ponakovs Left Short
Level 6
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Aleksejs Ponakovs bet 325,000 from late position, after being checked to by Kristen Foxen from the small blind on a board reading A♣8♣2♠J♠, with Foxen making the call.
Foxen would check to Ponakovs again on the J♥ river and this time Ponakovs chose a larger bet size in the form of 525,000, putting the pressure on Foxen.
After using up two of her time bank chips, Foxen found the call and would be rewarded as she tabled A♠10♣ for two pair, aces and jacks, with Ponakovs turning over Q♠7♠ for a queen-high missed flush draw.
