Ponomarev Almost Gets the Fold
Level 10
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
The pot stood at around 24,000 with two players looking at a board of 10♦J♣A♠2♣.
Nikolay Ponomarev, in the big blind, bet out 9,000. Simas Karaliunas, in middle position, called.
The J♦ river saw Ponomarev empty the clip, moving all in for 10,400. Karaliunas went deep into the tank, thinking for some time before making a reluctant call.
Nikolay Ponomarev: 9♦7♥ 
Simas Karaliunas: A♦10♣
Karaliunas' two pair were best and Ponomarev was sent to the rail.
