Kabrhel Wins Raising War with Ponakovs
Level 10
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Martin Kabrhel checked the Q♦5♥J♦ flop from the hijack, and Aleksejs Ponakovs fired a bet of 115,000 in the cutoff. Kabrhel then check-raised to 255,000, and Ponakovs replied with a three-bet to 450,000.
Kabrhel used most of his 30-second clock before four-betting to 650,000, and Ponakovs used a time bank card before making the call.
Both players then checked the 3♣ turn, and the dealer flipped over the J♣ river. Kabrhel used a time bank card before moving almost all of his stack into the middle, betting 1,155,000 while keeping a single red 5,000 chip behind.
Ponakovs thought it over before sending his cards into the muck, and Kabrhel stayed silent while revealing the 6♥ as he raked in a big pot.
