Boatman and Ponakovs Trade Blows
Aleksejs Ponakovs looked down at A♥3♦ on the button and raised to 575,000 on the button and Barny Boatman defended his big blind with Q♦10♥. Ponakovs was checked to by Boatman on the 5♥7♦A♦ flop, after which he made a bet of 350,000. Boatman quickly laid it down, shipping the pot to Ponakovs.
The next hand, David Kaufmann raised as first to act with J♣7♣ before Ponakovs made the call from the cutoff with 6♥6♦. Boatman also came along from the small blind with A♣J♠ and the trio went to a flop of 5♠10♣A♦.
The action checked to Ponakovs, who made a bet of 450,000. Boatman made the call before Kaufmann folded his cards. Both players then checked the 5♦ turn and the Q♥ river completed the board. Two more checks followed and Boatman's top pair won the pot at showdown.
