Ponakovs Jams River Into Noja
Level 14
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
In a heads-up pot with just over 50,000 in the middle on a completed board showing 8♦6♦5♦2♦A♠, Danielle Noja bet 18,000 from the hijack and Aleksejs Ponakovs moved all in for 120,000 next to act. Noja went deep in the tank, contemplating for several minutes.
"Sorry guys I don't usually take this long," said Noja as he was deep in thought.
After close to three minutes, Noja reluctantly let his cards go and the pot was sent to Ponakovs.
"Pick a card," said Ponakovs to Noja who gladly accepted and picked the card nearest to him. Ponakovs rolled over the A♦ and Noja was relieved to have picked the card confirming he made a good fold.
