Tim Baker

Level 2 : Blinds 200/300, 300 ante

There was a raise to 800 from middle position. The player in the hijack called before Aleksejs Ponakovs called out of the big blind.

Ponakovs checked the 4♥2♦4♣ flop, and the initial raiser bet 1,100. The hijack folded, but Ponakovs stuck around with a call.

The 8♦ on the turn got checked through for the J♠ to fall on the river. Ponakovs check-folded to a bet of 2,000 from his opponent.
