Ponakovs Keeps Taking From the Rich
Level 14
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Kayhan Mokri raised to 21,000 in middle position and Aleksejs Ponakovs called in the big blind.
The flop came K♠9♣7♦ and Ponakovs led out for 30,000. Mokri then raised all in and Ponakovs called for around 60,000 more.
Aleksejs Ponakovs: K♥8♥ 
Kayhan Mokri: Q♦Q♣
Ponakovs had outflopped Mokri's queens with a pair of kings and held up through the A♦ turn and 8♠ river to double up for the third time this level.
"I'm like Robin Hood, take from the rich to give to the poor," Mokri said.
