Silva Bests Ponakovs
Level 5
: Blinds 300/600, 600 ante
The pot was 4,300 as the board read K♦J♣2♥. Aleksejs Ponakovs in the big blind and a player in early position both checked the action to Eduardo Silva in the hijack, who bet out for 1,200. Ponakovs raised to 3,800 and only Silva called.
The turn came the 9♥ and Ponakovs slowed down. Silva retook the lead for 6,000 and Ponakovs eventually folded.
