Ponakovs Continues to Stack Chips

Level 2 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Aleksejs Ponakovs opened to 2,500 in early position and was called by Michael Addamo in the cutoff. The dealer fanned the flop of {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} and Ponakovs continued with a bet of 6,000. Addamo called and the {j-Spades} peeled off on the turn.

Ponakovs fired out another bet of 14,000 and Addamo stuck around to see the {9-Clubs} on the river. Ponakovs sized up a river-bet of 42,000 and Addamo used a time bank before calling. Ponakovs tabled {k-Hearts}{k-Clubs} for a full house and Addamo sent his cards to the muck.
